Just being in a crowded room, in and of itself, with no other stimulus, is quite capable of making me less concerned about other people! You should see what a traffic jam does to my driving! After a few minutes I will do *anything* to keep moving, no matter what it does to other people. Sheesh! This beats the violent-crime/pornography study I looked at for poor technique! And it got *published*! How? Wasn't it a refereed journal? --- Sarima (Stanley Friesen) UUCP: {ttidca|ihnp4|sdcrdcf|quad1|nrcvax|bellcore|logico}!psivax!friesen ARPA: ??
