GEnie: TOMNEFF BIX: t.neff (no kidding) Hear, hear! I am terribly embarrased by Mr. Ryan's comments towards Canadians. As an American, it pains me to think there are those still in this country who still wants everybody to respect us just because we are us, even we if don't warrant that respect. If someone wants to make a comment about something internal to the US, please do so! He/She might give us an idea that we could use. To negate any statement from someone just because they aren't tax-paying citizens of this country is ludicrous! Think of it this way, they are giving advice t us for FREE! It is up to us to make use of that advice. And since we are s superpower, the actions we take can and sometimes do have reactions in our neighbor to the North, so I find it very reasonble that they would take the time to comment/critisize what they think is wrong, particularly since it might affect them (i.e. the acid rain problem, an American problem that severly affects Canada) SO, Mr. Ryan, take your anti-Everybody-Who-Doesn't-Pay-Taxes attitude and take put it where, well, you know. -- Jason Gross Comp Sci Ugrad University of Miami Class of '91 (?) =========================================================================== Four out of five doctors | Mail your invigorating replies to: | Post think that life is the | GTWW2Z9Z%Gables.Span@Umigw.Miami.Edu | No leading cause of death. | (What a lovely address, isn't it now?) | Bills ======================================================== IBM Sucks Silicon!
