I don't object to what Walt said, just the way he said it. In this country we've had a long spell of a government bent on regulating every detail of our lives. Nowadays even the road signs tell me what to do, instead of what to expect. In fact it's worse than that - they've even started telling me what to think! During my time in Minneapolis 20 years ago I was nostalgic about the freedom from petty restrictions back home. That's all changed now. -- Rgds Peter. Linux Counter 5290, 1994-04-23.
