In defence of the writers of that show, it is quite apparent that they MEANT to be as obvious as possible with the meta-comments. And to that end they succeeded. They practically hit you over the head with it. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Dave Kirby ( ...!ihnp4!akgua!cylixd!dave)
