There are three reasons for this:
1. The lawyers are in abundant supply 2. The lab workers do not develop any kind of emotional attachment to lawyers 3. There are things you just can't get a rat to do.
Just a word: the "lawyer jokes" sent out recently are at least 10 years old. Calling them "liberal lawyer" jokes doesn't make them any fresher. I suggest original content, in the form of essays or analyses, is better than stale old lawyer jokes. --Tim May The Feds have shown their hand: they want a ban on domestic cryptography ---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---- Timothy C.
