A quote from Petro's Archives: **********************************************
Sometimes it is said that man can not be trusted with the government
of himself. Can he, then, be trusted with the government of others?
Or have we found angels in the forms of kings to govern him? Let
history answer this question. -- Thomas Jefferson, 1st Inaugural
