I agree with you Brian, but will not get on the soapbox for fear I'd never get down until someone knocked me off of it!

I personally don't get any papers or watch the news. I think that the media is destroying us little by little. They control exactly what we here and tend to like to hop onto trends like all the kidnappings that are going on would have you believe that the world seems to be coming to an end and nobody is safe anywhere, but in reality kidnaping are actually down quite a bit this year and it's just the medias latest pet story. When all this anthrax garbage was going around and everyone was panicing that they would drop dead from what they thought was a flu any second. My wife made a call to her family in spain and told them about it. They thought it was incredibly stupid that everyone was panicing over it because in spain alone about 40 or 50 people get anthrax every year, it's just not all that news worthy till our turbo-reportes pick it up and tell us that we are all doomed to die a horrible death within minutes. OK... I MUST get off this soap box or I'll be up here all night. Brian Cluff Team Snaptek On Tue, 2002-08-20 at 15:13, Mark Heitowit wrote: > Brian: > > Have you ever thought of being a reporter.
