Can never forget this when Solita Monsod said something like this 5 years ago on the talk show "Debate with Mare at Pare": "There is always corruption in every part of the world. It's only the degree/proportion/magnitude of the corruption on every country." If someone is thinking that there is no corruption on 1st world countries, fold a newspaper and slap him on the head. Make it 2 or more if he defends it. :) my 2 cents. regards, Andre -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
