Krishna tracked the monster to its lair and began a dance of death upon the head of the creature, intending to destroy it. So beset, the beast spoke from his agony, saying the great creator had created him to be a reptile and not a lamb or a maiden. Nature had condemned him to be as he was and not some other natured thing. This being so where was his sin in being a serpent? Meditating on this, Krishna saw the truth of the telling and instead of killing, banished the monster to the deep where its poison would be dissipated by many waters. In like fashion, a marketing man is what he is and should not be blamed for so being. -- ----------------------------------------------------- sonia@fricker !uunet!attcan!telly!moore!fricker!sonia !uunet!mnetor!becker!fricker!sonia
