I don't thinks that's quite right. They are not opposed to progress, it's the uncertainty of change that they don't like. If it can be shown that progress is indeed progress (i.e. that they will be better off as a consequence), then Joe Sixpack will usually accept it with open arms. This of course excludes those with a vested interest in the failure of any specific thing. Regards, Robin van Spaandonk http://rvanspaa.freehostia.com/project.html
