          there was a short story by Heinlein that said the same...

          Silence is the voice of complicity. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. -- monty python Might I suggest that the universe was always the size of the cosmos. It is just that at one point the cosmos was the size of a marble. -- Colin Angus Mackay

                  I bet that was a French Nuclear test - you can tell because the surroundings look nothing like France.

                  "On one of my cards it said I had to find temperatures lower than -8. The numbers I uncovered were -6 and -7 so I thought I had won, and so did the woman in the shop. But when she scanned the card the machine said I hadn't. "I phoned Camelot and they fobbed me off with some story that -6 is higher - not lower - than -8 but I'm not having it."

                        I seem to remember it being Asimov that wrote that story...but without having access to my library @ home, I can't be 100% sure.

                            No, Susie only got a B+. The guy that got the A proved that she'd done it, after the recreation, with a couple of mice and a piece of fairy cake.

                                Of course not. I wouldn't have worked without it, as everyone now knows.;)
