"irrevocable intent" is probably better. :-/ Also, intent doesn't mean action. :-) "The author of this script hereby grants irrevocable permission to any party who may have access to it to treat it as though it were a work to which any and all copyrights have expired." I think that would be an improvement. -- Nathanael Nerode <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Bush admitted to violating FISA and said he was proud of it. So why isn't he in prison yet?...
