OT: Someone pointed out to me how converting any text that is all capitalized, into the Wing Dings font in Microsoft, has a lot of fanatical symbolism. I wonder if a fanatic was working at Microsoft when Wing Dings was created? To see what I mean, copy the last post in all capitals to Microsoft Word and convert the font to Wing Dings. Many Crosses and Jewish Stars, surrounded by bombs, skull and cross bones, drops of blood, crystaline drops, unhappy faces. If you convert Q33NY, you get a picture of an airplane hitting the world trade center, a skull and cross bones and a jewish star. Q33 = 3rd month of 3rd Quarter? Is this just by chance or what? Cut and paste the following, or anything all capitalized to Microsoft Word 2000 and convert to Wing Dings. GUS; RE >> THE NEXT TIME YOU ARE TOLD THAT FANATICISM IS MERELY IN THE EYES OF THE BEHOLDER, AND ONE MAN'S TERRORIST IS ANOTHER MAN'S FREEDOM FIGHTER, WHY NOT SEE HOW THE REPUTED "FREEDOM FIGHTER" SCORES ON THE ABOVE LIST?<< I LIKE THAT; AND "REUTERS" NEWS MEDIA ( I HATE) PUT OUT AN ORDER TO EDITED OUT AND NOT USE TERRORIST, THEY SAID THE ONE MANS TERRORIST IS ANOTHER MANS FREEDOM FIGHTER. IN READING REUTERS I GET THE IDEA THAT THE WHOLE COMPANY IS SOME SORT OF FRONT FOR FANATICS WHO HIDE BEHIND THE BS OF BEING POLITICAL CORRECT. JIM Hopefully this is just a coincidence, but just curious to see if there are any comments on this.
