Interesting side issue: How many parents these days encourage their children to believe in Santa Claus, Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, etc? When my brother and I were munchkins (I'm 21 now and he's 19), Mom and Dad never told us that any of those guys were real (and I'm glad they didn't). We knew the legends, and we would make an occasional humorous remark about "Look what Santa/Tooth Fairy left for me", but we always knew that the stuff was really coming from Mom and Dad. It wasn't till I was a bit older that I realized that a lot of my friends really believed in Santa. I would suspect that this kind of thing becomes less common from one generation to the next. Am I right? ****************************************************************************** Joan "the VMS group is moving mountains" Alexander Interactive Systems, Santa Monica, CA cca!ima!ism780!alexander decvax!vortex!ism780!alexander "Opinions expressed herein were not mine originally, but were forced on me at gunpoint by the Interactive Systems Corporation"
