I stopped reading right here. In the end, this is a minor argument about a relatively obscure technology issue. Couching it in moral or ethical terms cheapens the argument and is a pretty good indicator that the writer lacks perspective. Take this as preachy if you like, but there are things out there that really deserve to be called evil, and this isn't one of them. -- ``The lyf so short, the craft so long to lerne.'' - Chaucer ``Ars longa, vita brevis'' - Hippocrates Chet Ramey, ITS, CWRU c...@case.edu http://cnswww.cns.cwru.edu/~chet/
