	>I hope you are joking?
I certainly am not!

	>If not, do you carry your argument to its logical
	>conclusion?
Yes I do!

	>What I mean is, if you feel we can't justify spending
	>some time
A relative term to be sure. Reading only a fraction of all the bullshit
on the net takes too much time.

	>and very little money on reading news
I doubt you would do it if YOU had to pay for it?

        >I hope you also have cut out ALL coffee breaks during 
	>working hours,
I drink my coffee at the terminal, thank you.

	>talking to your co-workers on subjects not neccessary for
	>the job,
Only in the lunch break.

	>going to the toilet, etc.
Aaaah, caught me out. It seems I am human after all.

        >You may feel that this is going to far, but where is the 
	>difference?
No difference. You could be sacked in either case.

	>All the mentioned activities, plus many more we take for
	>granted,
You shouldn't take things for granted, you have your employment
conditions!

	>cost our employers money without giving any direct
	>returns.
EXACTLY.

	>So I ask again, why the distinction?
Really!!

	>Or perhaps you do none of these things during office
	>hours?
Right first time!

	>P.S.  Where is net.flames or eunet.flames so I can really
	>get going?
If you feel you have to call me names, you can always mail me. I am
pretty tough skinned.
