I just now (in the past few days) switched to reading news on a different machine because my employer saw an article I posted to net.jokes.d (about a problem with 0 length articles - I first encountered the problem in net.jokes). He was worried about "what will people think if they see NIH employees reading net.jokes?" Of course, anyone reading my article ALSO reads net.jokes. I also wonder how HE saw my article. So, in case you're wondering, nothing I say or imply has ANYTHING AT ALL to with the opinions, management, or anything else to do with the US goverment, or reflects anythings at all upon any of the fuddy-duddies employed therein. This is all my opinion, of course. - rene -- rene@tove My opinions are my own, and no one can take them away from me!!!
