The reason that this seemingly elementary fact did not occur to me is that Reed College does not have a Computer Science Dept.--hell, there aren't even any computer classes here--the vast majority of users either write papers or play games. With that in mind, I would like to ask how the computers are run at other places--who has access, what they are used for, etc. It's a thought, anyhow. . . Have a Nice Day Soren Petersen
