    I worry about my child and the Internet all the time, even though she's
    too young to have logged on yet. Here's what I worry about. I worry
    that 10 or 15 years from now, she will come to me and say "Daddy, where
    were you when they took freedom of the press away from the Internet?"
    -- Mike Godwin

    Unix IS user friendly... It's just selective about who its friends are.
    System Administration - It's a dirty job, but somebody said I had to do it.
    If you receive something that says 'Send this to everyone you know,
    pretend you don't know me.

    Standard $500/message proofreading fee applies for UCE.
