Yes, William, I expect more. But I have to admit that when people are afraid for their livelihoods, they do tend to act against the "greater good" if it will help their own individual circumstances. That's why I think it's so important to make sure our systems and institutions are designed to harness human nature to increase the "greater good".

Hugh, please, it's getting painful. I mean seriously: "Even though the only people who are losing bone calcium are those who drink milk like water, they will defend their livelihood." Does that make *any* sense whatsoever to you? Do you really think the mind that came up with that sentence is ever going to see your point of view? Anyway, it's your call, but my guess is we're a coupla cans short of a sixpack with this one :-P -- JoeHill ++ ICQ # 280779813 Registered Linux user #282046 Homepage: www.orderinchaos.org +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "You tell me it's the institution; Well you know, you better free your mind instead..."-- John Lennon -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.
