Re: Malaysia You said: That an American with Gate's visiblity offers Mahatir some legitimacy is sucked up like cattle drinking at a desert mudhole. I had a laugh there. <g> You said: ...how difficult it is to get a phone line here. Or get a decent connection to the internet. Or rely on steady supplies of water and electricity for that matter. The things we take for granted in the U.S. The pity is, few Americans appreciate the fact of being American and living in the U.S. ... in general Americans are a pretty unhappy lot. What irony. Well, whatever it takes to get them to buy PCs. <g> God bless, PX
