Joe, that reminds me of the bumper stickers in Texas back in the late 1970s and early 1980s. That was when Jimmy Carter was whining that we had to drive 55 mph and set our thermostats at 68 degrees in the winter to save limited energy for more important things. The Texas bumper stickers read, "Drive 75 mph and have sweet dreams about a yankee freezing to death in Boston." Now that the price of oil has fallen to next to nothing, the folks here say, "why can't we all just get along?" <G> Arrogance is fun, but we have to make certain that we will be on top forever before we lay it on too thick. After all, the rest of the world already hates our slimy guts. MB
