Derek, I agree. E has been an outstanding contributor of secondary sources to this thread. But where's E's beef? In the spirit of this thread's header -- where Ken's intention clearly was to foment discussion over copypasting -- I would like to ask; does anybody else find the following death preparing phrase found in the "Terrorist Check List" in Mohammed Atta's recovered luggage extremely curious? *"The time for fun and waste is over."* It seems to me these lunatics really think that fun equals waste. That goes a long way toward answering their feelings about women, among other things. Kind of reminds me of General Ripper's bodily fluid loss fears in Dr. Strangelove. Come to think of it, everytime I picture one of those terrorists sitting gleefully in control, left seat, aiming dead center for a tower, I just can't seem to get a cowboyhat waving, H-bomb striding, yeeee-haaaa-ing Slim Pickens out of my mind. Curse you Kubrick! Jerry in Omaha
