    I suspect that Jeckyl Island reminded me of Devil's Island a little :-) But, if I had to compare, I think Megadeth is closer, although there's no way it's remotely in the same league, as I said.

    Yes, the visit by that nasty green alien with the invisibility cloak has to protected at all costs! Oh, but now Jesse is spilling the beans and Arnie is still Governator, is Arnie going to be paying Jesse a visit to plug the leak? :laugh: You measure democracy by the freedom it gives its dissidents, not the freedom it gives its assimilated conformists.

    How many unsavy computer people have you had to deal with and explain things too. I've had plenty who act as though they don't have ears to hear you with.

    I take a day off from work and it gets nuts around here. Yeesh. So can this be applied to T.V.? It looks simple enough to apply it, heck, Fox News easily counts for contradicting itself.

    Rather than waste any time providing you with a pithy reply, I'll just steal one from your playbook. You're intellectually dishonest. You measure democracy by the freedom it gives its dissidents, not the freedom it gives its assimilated conformists.

It happens here in Australia where a river used for crop irrigation flows though multiple states. Those downstream dont want those upstream to use all the water so there is some kind of complex trading scheme. I dont think there are derivative contracts listed on public exchanges though.

    None at all. I've never heard of either 'Planet 51' or 'Ilion animation studios' ... but I suspect that the Ilion part may well have something to do with Ilion NY.

    My apologies. In my haste I overlooked the fact that there are some out there that actually work hard to achieve that level of Dumbness. I should have conditioned my answer to read "Naturally Occuring". Of course these things get missed in the natural course of things, and I will endeavour to be more accurate next time I think of the Dimness and Ignorance of Gillian and Captain Kleenex! ------------------------------------ No Good Deed Goes Unpunished Clare Boothe Luce
