And this is where we come to an end. I'll always say you are not responsible. So we agree to disagree. :) To add a wrinkle to this - it brings up an interesting theory. I assume everyone here has read 1984. It's been _many_ years since I read it - but I remember right - there was a theory that if you remove the words for rebellion, then there would be no rebellion. In other words, if a person can't communicate a wrong deed, they can't do it. I wonder how true that would be. -ray ______________________________________________________________________ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
