Greetings, I am saddened by William J. Kammerer loss. If I had known I would have looked froward to a standardisation of US party policies Both parties having the same policy, similar people running, similar speeches and all obeying the same guidelines. This would be very different from now :-). If the politicians didn't obey these guidelines then dire punishments such as being segmented, terminated or ASCII-EBDIC converted would be inflicted. In time, a new democracy called RosettaGov or ebREP or BizGOP or the Kammerer Republic would bloom. Better luck next time Mr. K regards Paul > -----Original Message----- > From: William J.
