Clae. -- "As a net is made up by a series of knots, so everything in this world is connected by a series of knots. If anyone thinks that the mesh of a net is an independant, isolated thing, he is mistaken. It is called a net because it is made up of a series of connected meshes, and each mesh has its place and responsibilities in relation to other meshes." - The Teaching Of Buddha, (c) Bukkyo Dendo Kyokai (Buddhist Promoting Foundation), Tokyo 1966, -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
