Regarding government funds - not only does this idea disturbs me personally (now is the time for our government to spend LESS, not MORE money), but I don't see what exactly we're trying to achieve. To get 5,000 shekels needed for a movie and food, you don't need government (or corporate) funds, just collecting 50 shekels from every viewer is enough. To get 500,000 shekels needed to pay someone to work full-time on some project, government funds will not be enough (unless there's a crooked political party backing you up). -- Nadav Har'El | Monday, May 27 2002, 17 Sivan 5762 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |----------------------------------------- Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |Attention: There will be a rain dance http://nadav.harel.org.il |Friday night, weather permitting. ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
