Actualy you are ascribing an effect as the cause. The information is there because the holders believe it's in their best interest to dissiminate it. As companies (the US Army' current behaviour is a good example) become to respect the distribution capability of the internet you'll see a reduction of information available. > Reputation has > more value then ever. Malarky. Reputation is irrelevant, just examine the prisoners delima. Those who put reputation over action are setting themselves up for a classic abuse of trust. > Government cannot protect people from their own decisions, and should > not have the right to take those decisions away. > I wouldn't eat at McDonalds even with all the regulation.

More often that not regulation is the result of abuse of the market by a manufacturer and is imposed ex post facto. It's intent is to eliminate future abuses. ____________________________________________________________________ The seeker is a finder. Ancient Persian Proverb The Armadillo Group ,::////;::-.

Your local church is a member of a larger international collective that does in fact use coercion in one form or another. Consider the consequences of abortion for a Catholic (true believer). Tell that to the various hospices and clinics that have been blown to kingdom come... Coercion is a much broader stroke than a simple assault. It can include real and imagined consequences to alter or limit the behaviour of others. ____________________________________________________________________ The seeker is a finder.

Railroads were highly competitive in the East. The railroad monopolies in the West were created by exclusive government land grants. Matt

That's so funny. Please produce the amount Informix lost by employee theft last year for example. If it's zero then you may have a point.

2 books of potential interest...
by Jim Choate 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Hello, I was in Bookstop a while ago and noticed two books that could be of potential interest. The first I didn't buy, "We were soldiers once....and young", about the Ia Drang valley incident in Nov. of 65 (I had stated it was in '64 in the discussion about "The Best and Brightest"). It is written from notes and interviews with the survivors apparently. For those who are interested in the issues that were involved in the Vietnam War it may be of some use. The Law Enforcement Handbook D. Rowland, J. Bailey ISBN 1-56619-471-7 $6.98 (in the cheap books section) Looks to discuss a majority of police proceedures and details the items of interest to police officers in performing their duty. ____________________________________________________________________ The seeker is a finder.
