<> Without discussing the specifics of the "tim" case, does it make
any difference what his status was?  I have a not fully verbalized
feeling that the relationship (responsibilities & rights -- in both
directions) is not the same between employee-employer as between
graduate student-faculty.  I personally feel that there is a
significant difference.
   I also wonder if there can be a justifiable contract in which a
person willingly agrees to use a computer for a restricted set of
purposes - even though the other things (e.g., postnews) are
accessible and even though other (more or less) similar people are
allowed to do the other things.
   We may not find out the details, but the generalities are of
importance.  --henry schaffer   genetics   ncsu
