If a person doesn't want to contribute (in any way), that's their right, regardless of how much an ass I think they are. My issue is with people claiming that anyone and everyone can avoid becoming or get out of being homeless just by looking for a job -- that getting out of homelessness is a simple matter of desire and that anyone who is homeless therefore is so entirely of their own doing. I don't deny that there are con artists -- I've never personally seen any, or if I have they've been very good at it. This may have a lot to do with location. I've never lived and/or worked in a really high-traffic area with good public transportation and a lot of pan-handling, which is where I would expect to find the con artists who work that particular angle. 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://www.fusiontap.com http://www.sys-con.com/author/?id=4806 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| 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:5:157981 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
