I guess all those years of depending on Apple to build, >distribute, sell, diagnose, and repair your computers for you eventu- >ally take their toll and build up a dependence of sorts. EVERYBODY is dependent on others for something else. I think it best to be honest and admit that. Which of you have built your computers from scratch and written all their software from scratch? I mean, start with metal ores, crude oil, sand, etc. And do *everything* without studying what others had done. Because anything less than that is dependence on others. Since we are not likely to live in isolation with each others, why not make the best of it by making others dependent on us, as in providing stuff that others may find desirable. In this way, dependency can go both ways :-) ... I suppose >you would also like to see the government take responsibility for your >everyday life? After all, the government is your friend.

I presume that this is sarcasm, and that you are an anarchist. -- Loren Petrich, the Master Blaster Happiness is a fast Macintosh petrich@netcom.com And a fast train Visit ftp://ftp.netcom.com/pub/pe/petrich Or ftp to ftp.netcom.com, then go to /pub/pe/petrich
