Not my point incidentally... :) If you have some spare time, Technopoly is a pretty good book -- along with Amusing Ourselves to Death, both from Niel Postman. I certainly don't agree with everything the man says (pretty sure I'd be disgusted by his breed of religion which he alludes to but doesn't disclose in his books), but he presents some -- what are often pretty unpopular ideas with a good amount of lucid information to back them up. Ever heard that we only use 10% of our brain? Know how that got started? 'Cause the answer might surprise you. The truth is the meme is less than meaningless. Just food for thought. :) s. isaac dealey 954.522.6080 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://macromedia.breezecentral.com/p49777853/ http://www.sys-con.com/author/?id=4806 http://www.fusiontap.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:152180 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
