Comment on:

	It should be noted that reverse discrimination in the USA is
	legal.  I.E. you can hire a woman and reject a man of equal
	qualification on the grounds of sex, to implement affirmative
	action quotas.

	This is substantiated by case law, and also seems to be the
	practice within the Bell System.


Discrimination of any form is illegal anywhere in the great US of A.
Always has been; always will be.  Affirmative action has nothing to do
with reverse discrimination; your first paragraph is a non sequitur.  If
you slip up in this manner again, you will be reassigned to a group
debating punctuation for the next edition of the newspeak dictionary.
