When I first heard of the attempts to produce a 1500-word-pro vs. 500-word-con ratio, I was somewhat upset. However, I got caught up in the whole school-work-relationship business and wasn't able to cast my vote. Next, I hear voting is over, only to hear two days later that it's not over. Blech! It was wrong for Bill Brindley to say that people should not have started talking about it in the first place. I dont' have the $$$ to go to Symposia, I don't have a car, so meeting with my LUG is near impossible, and other than official mailings and this group, I don't get to hear about DECUS related stuff. Keep up the good info! -=> iain <=- ----------------------------------|++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ | "He divines remedies against injuries; | "Words are drugs." | | he knows how to turn serious accidents | -Antero Alli | | to his own advantage; whatever does not | | | kill him makes him stronger." | "Culture is for bacteria." | | - Friedrich Nietzsche | - Christopher Hyatt | -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-
