I think I've still got my "Just say NO to OCO" T-shirt that I bought at a NaSTEC. I wore it the next year but the NaSPA hard line against OCO seemed to have evaporated. A NaSTEC attendee pointed to my T-shirt and asked what OCO stood for. How quickly we forget... :) Cheers, Greg ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
