Indeed, I think that people want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of the way and let them have it. -- Dwight D. Eisenhower "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use." --Galileo Galilei "The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them." - Albert Einstein Rita Mae Brown - "I finally figured out the only reason to be alive is to enjoy it." --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "NLUG" group.
