Victory was the answer - to a great many problems. When the facts speak for themselves, only a fool insists on having a debate. The future is leaving the station, the US is at the throttle, and the Left isn't on board. [link\|http://www.angelfire.com/ca3/marlowe/index.html\|http://www.angelfire...arlowe/index.html]

Marlowe and Limbaugh are clear counterexamples. jb4 "We continue to live in a world where all our know-how is locked into binary files in an unknown format.
