I don't agree. They should be shown the door, not pushed through it. Of course, it isn't a bad thing, in this case, but still. How would you like it if I became the dictator of India, did all the good things for the country, but took away your freedom in the process? Would you trade your freedom for the greater good of even yourself? Watch "Strip Search". An HBO production. Actually, I think that movie was the cause HBO got into trouble recently. -- ---------------------------------------- Mrugesh Karnik GPG Key 0xBA6F1DA8 Public key on http://wwwkeys.pgp.net ----------------------------------------
