Laz, this is a public message board. I'm not suggesting anything of the sort. <g>

A heartwarming story from days of yore: Back in about 1971, my family had a situation which involved dealing with a foreign government. Mother picked up the telephone and called our congressman and got favorable results. The whole thing took less than a day.

No, there were no bribes or other inducements, although my parents had worked as volunteers at his campaign headquarters. The story is meant only to serve as an illustration of how things have changed. - Holly
