HAH. I'm still trying to reconcile the fact that a Republican actually
started the ball rolling on imposing this tax. Lamar Alexander was the

In the mean time, all of my attempts to get folks to participate in any

it must not be that big an issue. We'll see what happens, but remember,
your silence is a vote...

OK, I'll take off my political boots now. Back to code...
