    Wow.
    Well Charlie's post was - at minimum - entertaining. Not to mention a
    bit thought provoking on where different peoples of similar ilk may take
    different turns on the morality (or duty) they apply to modern technical
    issues aside from what they are instructed to do by black-letter law. It
    also speaks to the wonder of issues we may have to face in the future
    with situations that indeed *will* have much in common with the souls
    mentioned. "We" always repeat the same old mistakes in each new venue we
    create. At some point laws & regulations should always be questioned,
    they don't just change themselves. These questions seem to come at the
    oddest times, over the oddest things sometimes...

    Anyway: The body of his message was filled with interesting content. In
    the future, perhaps you might restrain from mocking messages that are at
    least shorter than your overly-broad, vague, fear-clad corporate
    boilerplate sig. Are you actually required by corp policy to include
    this most droll thing *every* time you send mail?

    Gads, step away from the Memorial Day "Bonus Buys", get out of the
    cubicle and turn off the fluorescent lights. Go check out your
    reflection in a pond, go for a walk, stare at some fish Bart.
