Also, I am hesitant to call you "Black Unicorn," as applying the adjective "black" to a person is illegal in some jurisdictions, and "Unicorn of Color" does not ring true.

Yeah, colored people. My, how the worm has turned....)
But Tim, we are ALL colored people. Even the albinos among us (since white is a mixture of all colors). Even the darkest among us reflect some light which has color. :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bill Frantz | The CDA means | Periwinkle -- Computer Consulting (408)356-8506 | lost jobs and | 16345 Englewood Ave. frantz@netcom.com | dead teenagers | Los Gatos, CA 95032, USA
