Trade with with all, entangling alliances with none? Sounds vaguely familiar... oh yeah, Thomas Jefferson, once said it I think. Oddly enough the first hit on google when searching for ``entangling alliances trade'' is: http://www.house.gov/paul/tst/tst2007/tst111107.htm Don't quote me on this, but I think it was Mr Glenn Beck who called Ron Paul the closest thing to a Founding Father that we could find in our modern day... Not that I find Glenn Beck particularly interesting or credible, but there are plenty of people that listen to his show. :-) Andy -- [-----------[system uptime]--------------------------------------------] 8:36pm up 1:07, 1 user, load average: 1.25, 1.14, 1.10 /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
