Anyone else remember that old fairy story - in which a tramp teaches a
Little Old Lady (TM) how to make soup from a stone:
"Of course, it'd be better if we had some carrots... It'd be better if we
had some beef... It'd be better if we had a 500MHz G4..."
All the best,
In Seattle, Washington, it is illegal to carry a concealed weapon that
is over six feet in length.
