What the HELL does this have to do with computers? I've been trying to raise some issues having to do with the way advances in technology may affect the way we use computers and the limitations that lack of vision, standards, and imagination impose on computer use even when the technology makes huge leaps. There has also been a discussion going on about whether the govern- ment is using (or is capable of using) computers to monitor private communication of its citizens. I think these topics are relevant to the newsgroup. Let's get back to the subject. --Peter Nelson
