Famous, but possibly apocryphal, story: Oscar Wilde went to the USA on a lecture tour. On entry he had to fill in a customs declaration which included the question "Is it your intention to overthrow the government of the United States of America". Wilde replied "Sole purpose of visit". They let him in. Bob -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
