paxx - i hope that history will prove that you're overly pessimistic in #17. only time will tell, and i probably don't have enough time left to see the end of the story.

if social acceptability were the arbiter, there would never have been an Underground Railroad set up to free slaves from the legal, socially accepted fate in which they suffered in the 1800s. People know what evil is. people under the Nazi regime did not converse socially about the concentration camp operating 2 miles outside of their town. the camp may have been socially accepted, but at some level people knew that evil was occuring inside the camp.

"i went, i saw, i got confused, i left i haven't been back since. if you know how to use it, and what you are doing, then it probably is easy. but if you don't, then it isn't so simple." Ditto.

paxx is a sharp exegetist! and i do think Koasati is looking pretty "nochalant" these days. and that's a lot better than looking notalant like most of the rest of us.

IPlural - remember the Jerusalem B virus, that would keep appending itself to your apps until they took forever to launch? No data damage, but the buggar who wrote that one had a mean sense of humor.

we know that antivenom neutralizes venom, and antimatter annihilates matter. so what is a dote, and what would an antidote do if it ever found one?? bkb had oral surgery this morning, and the pain relief provided is exquisite.

1972: BKB walks out of gold shop in Nong Khai, Thailand. Passing Pathet Lao terrorist swings a 45 auto into his face and pulls trigger. Hollow Click! Thai army shoots PL terrorist, retieves bullet from chamber of the 45, and gives it to BKB for a good luck piece. excitement /= fun sometimes.

Norton detected and marked the variant kaak worm files on my sytem, but was totally incapable of quarantining or deleting them! Lotta good, right? had to use an ancient set of pseudo-unix, that does all its own dirty work and doesn't make system-type calls to DOS or Windows. snuffed Mr. kaak straightaway and didn't have to reformat, but this jolted my faith in NAV a little. >
