Well, it is southern w.r.t. certain states, but yeah, y'all got me.

Sorry, wrong again. Hatch is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, LDS, aka Mormon. Not an actual Christian church. Details available with Google. Basically, Jesus is no more a divine figure in LDS than in Islam. In fact, LDS and Islam share a number of things in common with regard to the role of the various prophets and seers. I've known a bunch of Mormons, and "jeebus-talking" is not something they do much of. --Tim May "In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned.
