The whole point of standardization is to *redirect* (not discourage) people's creativity into useful channels. Isaac Newton spent an unconscionable amount of time, by our standards, messing about with astrology and numerology -- far more than he ever put into physics or calculus. The "standardization" of science since his day has helped reduce such effects. -- John Cowan http://www.ccil.org/~cowan [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please leave your values Check your assumptions.
