My guess is that he either will go through a change to a more noble state
(gee, just like radio-chemistry) or die in a worthy cause in #6.  Besides,
don't blame him... if YOU were a banker all your life, you'd be pretty darn
unsuited to nasty combat, too (unlike computer personnel, who all have
nerves of steel and eyes of crystal (or is that the other way around?)).
The man may be a Twinkie, but he seems to have done a good job on
child-rearing.

*Sigh*.  Guess I had better get this out of the way: :-)

	Fluke IS full of witty, interesting people. Most of them, tho' are
	shy (we're almost all from Lake Wobegon).  I simply have a tendancy
	to vocalize (i.e. open my big trap...).
	
	Thanks to the miracles of technology, I can now post news from my
	very apartment dwelling.  And most of mine does come from there.  So
	don't go crying to your various managers, "But, MORIARTY gets to
	post all the live-long day -- why can't *I*?!"  I do not wish to set
	a bad example for the software engineers (oops, computer
	programmers) of tomorrow.
	
	And lastly, the very idea that there is more than one person posting
	under my name is ludicrous...
	You said it.
	Right.
	What she said.
