I'll stop bringing up that particular incident when Mary Jo Kopechne comes and asks me to. He _killed_ somebody, then used his family influence to cover it up. People complain about the _Bushes_? The Kennedys treat that state like their personal fiefdom. He _killed_ someone. The most sympathetic possible interpretation to him is that he let her drown and then walked away without a care in the world. God knows what really happened. So I'll say it's not relevant to what sort of a person he is when Mary Jo asks me to, and not before. That seems fair. It's more of a chance than he gave her. ===== Gautam Mukunda [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Freedom is not free" http://www.mukunda.blogspot.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
