Chuq, I think you side-stepped my question. I didn't ask why you criticized me, I asked why you have been inconsistent in choosing who to criticise. Now, I know what you think I'm "guilty" of. My question is, why the double standard in "sentencing"? It reminds me of our legal system, where members of minorities tend to get longer sentences for the same crime. The discrimination seems to be in the other direction, though. Is it the desire to side with the under dog? (Uh-oh. I'm walking on shells, here. I bet I'll get flamed.) We've come full circle. My position hasn't changed. Let's drop all this crap and start treating individuals as individuals. -- Alan ("Controversial") Driscoll AT&T Bell Laboratories
