That sounds like an awfully reasonable idea.  I'm not sure what the actual
truth of the situation is, but I think my son came up with the best reason.

What is a rainbow anyway ...

	... Something always far away in the distance

(No flames please ... I really am looking forward to the new TOS, whatever
it is called.  I just couldn't pass this up after he had told me his
