Why do you people bother responding to the drivel that Alex posts? It is apparent that he has his own preconceptions and blatant misconceptions and thinks that everyone else is wrong and stupid for not agreeing. Just ignore it, as there is nothing to learn, other than patience from the majority of what he writes. Sutra thumpers rarely have any insight and often mistake memory and knowledge for understanding. ------------------------ Yahoo!
