        Ethics and rules are two different things. I try to be a very ethical employee ( for exmample, I would not write a mag or CP article that exposes stuff proprietary to work ), but as far as rules go, where I work is pretty relaxed about things that don't matter for people who understand what does matter, and apply themselves to it. That's how it should be - we're skilled workers, not plumbers. Christian Hey, at least Logo had, at it's inception, a mechanical turtle. VB has always lacked even that... - Shog9 04-09-2002 During last 10 years, with invention of VB and similar programming environments, every ill-educated moron became able to develop software. - Alex E. - 12-Sept-2002

          Well I was once warned about public kissing! But then I guess they had a point. Other than that my work place is very relaxing :-) Except for the lack of bandwidth :-( Nish

                  ;) It's easy to sit there and say you'd like to have more money. And I guess that's what I like about it. It's easy. Just sitting there, rocking back and forth, wanting that money.

                                          Well I was once warned about public kissing! But then I guess they had a point. Other than that my work place is very relaxing :-) Except for the lack of bandwidth :-( Nish
