(): OK, almost the same question -- the other one has "airport?" at the end, in stead of "hog farm?". :-) [link\|mailto:MyUserId@MyISP.CountryCode\|Christian R.

When a dyke collapsing means sterilizing the local river for ten miles downstream (AISTR happening in the Carolinas a couple/few years back) it might be time to look at whether there's a problem or not. --\n-------------------------------------------------------------------\n* Jack Troughton jake at consultron.ca \n [link\|http://consultron.ca\|http://consultron.ca] [link\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca] \n Kingston Ontario Canada [link\|news://news.consultron.ca\|news://news.consultron.ca] *\n-------------------------------------------------------------------
