That's 100% true, if you want to be pedantic about it, but pedants are obliged to read the next few words of what I wrote. Enterprise-class routers do "==" fiber optic technology. :-) > > I think I understand the loan problem. > > I read this as "I think I understand the loan problem, so I'm not > going to take the time to read all sides of the story. I'll just learn > about the side I agree with..." Your interpretation is incorrect, but I am to blame for the misunderstanding. Perhaps I should have written "Having read the referenced report and having actively followed UTOPIA's progress since 2004, I think I understand the loan problem as well as anyone can." I know some (most?) people can't believe it, but it is possible to be informed about UTOPIA and still be quite opposed to it. :-) Cheers, Chris /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
