It doesn't get water to areas that need it. Here's how IT does help. It is a tool. It'll help predict weather and food growing patterns. It'll help develop better seeds. It'll help us know the pattern of water movement. It'll automate many things leaving us more time to concentrate on intelligent work. Remember, computers are tools. *Use* them. -- Satya. <URL:http://satya.virtualave.net/> US-bound grad students!
