Let's face it Gil, the only thing that came out of ureka that you objected to was Dr. Shea's article on your computer prices, and whether or not you were scalping the "uninitiated". (I'm neutral, no opinion) Dr. Shea was doing what I understand was a psychological profile study of the personality types who try to become as someone who replied to his article put it so nicely, "Net.Gods", and their minions. Personally I'd rather not spawn such a situation, but I believe when his research paper on the project was reviewed, it got a standing ovation thanks to those who replied, those you mention in your posting. I also believe his paper used direct quotations from the net replies. Watch for it in Psychology Today. The names will be changed but you should have no difficulty recognizing the article. :-) You can find Dr. Shea (alias mike shea) at: .....uunet!atexnet!kodak!brandy!ureka!orion!mikie or perhaps the "best" solution is sign up for one of the courses he teaches and discuss it with HIM ;-) -- Make it by hard work and education, the American Dream ! -- charlie ------------------ | Dare to be Great | ------------------
