whuxle!eric's statement of "if you don't like it LEAVE" seems to
ring of familiarity.

Personally, I'm glad that living in America affords one the luxury
to say whatever they chose without having to "LEAVE IT"! Yes, it
even allows people to be close-minded if they want and make such
statements as "LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT". I, for one, am glad that there are
people on this network who do not accept everything espoused as truth
without question! And, I am glad that I live in a country which
allows it citizens to voice their opinions of improvements which must
be made. Free exchange of ideas is an important tool in maintaining
the freedom we enjoy, and improving it.

Questioning the source of "truth" is one method of insuring that
decisions about the world are not made in haste and are indeed
based upon factual information rather than rumor and/or
superstition, or even outright lies. It also is the basis of the
educational institutions and research organizations who provide the
resourses for this network to exist at all! There are a
large number of individuals who feel that the free exchange of
information, which is obviously not work or school related, is
important or this network would be abolished!

Think about it!!!
