OK, but I think that's taking the point a little too far. I would argue that science is science, and not ideology, though it has served ideological purposes. One has to allow people curiosity that is not necessarily ideologically driven. All a lab does, or is supposed to do, is to allow that curiosity to be satisfied in as neutral a setting as possible. Of course, labs don't always do this. Ed _______________________________________________ Futurework mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://scribe.uwaterloo.ca/mailman/listinfo/futurework
