Dave:

"Lawyers, but a necessary evil. "

The kindest thing that I have ever seen written about lawyers. :)

Let me remind you that while Doctors were treating their patients with leeches, Lawyers were creating the Constitution. :)

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

I believe the founding fathers purposefully framed the Constitution so that all religions could coexist, as many of the early settlers came here to escape religious persecution. Remember, even though they worshipped the same God, in that era Protestants and Catholics believed each other to be the minion of the Devil.

Engineers overpaid? Certainly. I never understood why the most menial, dirty, and difficult jobs were always the lowest paying. But then again, without engineers, we couldn't be having this exchange...

And we didn't even kill a tree having it.
