I hack computers at a northern university. Im quite happy thank you. Given that the one thing we all have in common is that one day we shall die, shouldnt those of us who manage to remain happy in the mean time be given a break? If I gripe Im being defensive. If I do nothing Im either apathetic, or secretly convinced that the computer room is no place for a woman. Actually I am mad as hell about such remarks, but then that seems to be another no-no. (Even our sister gets as mad as hell sometimes......) Hmm. If you think it would be to your benefit to hack less, do so. I sure wont stop you. I think that you are a big boy (I assume that you are not a girl or you wouldnt have made the inane remark) and can make your own decisions. Just like I make mine. Laura Creighton decvax!utzoo!laura
