Partly, I guess, because they can't keep up with the constantly changing coinage as inflation takes its toll (if this were RISKS instead of TELECOM, I'm sure the moderator would find some pun to make of that). -- Roy Smith, Public Health Research Institute 455 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016 {att,philabs,cmcl2,rutgers,hombre}!phri!roy -or- roy@alanine.phri.nyu.edu "The connector is the network"
