	This has probably already been discussed, so if it has I
really don't want to fan the flames on this whole ^s/^q question.  I
usually ignore the postings about it, but something about this posting
caught my eye.  i noticed that most people wanted to bind ^S and ^Q to
functions that dont do anything.  The only reason I am posting this is
in case there was an oversight!  Any reason why you didn't just:
(global-unset-key "\c-s")
(global-unset-key "\c-q")

	Once again, if this has been mulled over already then don't
even bother responding, I really don't care, I just thought that maybe
someone hadn't realized that you could unbind a keystroke.  Of course,
you have to unbind it in all the local maps, too - but doing a global
set-key wouldn't fix that either....
