Wrong, on both counts! At the risk of injecting some seriousness into this exchange (and at the risk of being accused of moving here and complaining)... One thing that surprizes me about NC is the one-dimensionality of the political landscape. It seems there's the Chapel Hill liberals vs. the Jesse Helms loyal conservatives. Period. End of options. I believe this attitude is reenforced by NC having (only two) party voting options on the ballots. I had never heard of such upon moving here. Is this common in The South? Elsewhere? Can anybody present a justification for it? -- Ed Green DoD#0111 (919) 543-1757 ed_green@vnet.ibm.com
