You attack anybody be they male, female, or You know, this silliness has been going on for about 3 weeks right now... I think we should come up with a mutually agreeable meeting place, say - how about Wrestlemania IV at Trump's Plaza in Atlantic City, hand out Uzis and oh, six or seven clips, and let you blow each other away (film at 11). Isn't about time that everyone realizes that there are people out there who try to play by the unwritten rules of common decency and that there are others who don't give a damn and try to be patently offensive for the sheer pleasure of raising the blood pressure of others. Personally, I don't care what you all do with or to each other. As I recall, by "n" and "K" keys work quite well here in the wonderful world of vnews. However, while you're ripping each other and the cooperative network that made all this ripping possible, how about taking the conversation elsewhere, OK ??? It may be hard to believe, but I'm administering news as part of my job, not for a giggle. I read news.admin to learn how to do my job better so I can keep the above mentioned job and put food on the table. I don't have the time or the inclination to read this stuff any more. It was funny at first, then mildly amusing, now it's getting a little sily isn't it ? Move your tirades to an appropriate group (please). Vince
