Lines: 10 I have to agree that "Jr's" are not so terrible as has been mentioned. How can it be that it is important for people (children) to have their own identity and then it matters SO MUCH that they have their own special name? Name and identity don't have much to do with each other, even in programming langauges. That is why programming langauges have equality tests, and why, in real life, stereotypes don't work but taking the time to get to know someone does. -- Spoken: Mark Weiser ARPA: mark@maryland CSNet: mark@umcp-cs UUCP: {seismo,allegra,brl-bmd}!umcp-cs!mark
