Tim's signature file no longer asserts that he's a Licensed Ontologist, but this seems to be the kind of question you'd ask a L.O. if you knew one. # Thanks; Bill # Bill Stewart, +1-415-442-2215 stewarts@ix.netcom.com # <A HREF="http://idiom.com/~wcs"> # You can get PGP software outside the US at ftp.ox.ac.uk/pub/crypto
