BTW, if these came from friends or associates, you may wish to inform them Mike -- "The man who views the world at 50 the same as he did at 20 has wasted 30 years of his life." --Muhammad Ali -- "Rats and roaches live by competition under the laws of supply and demand. It is the privilege of human beings to live under the laws of justice and mercy." - Wendell Berry
