Now, here you have a key. The youthful number in any group define its' likely-hood of survival... it will be "they" who free us from strangle-holds and limits now imposed... It will be the vast numbers of youth who end up defining the real future... without youth--we are all DOOMED (Viagra won't even help!!! grin) Me? I would like to think, "I am just a guy." In a generic sense, a "John Smith" of society... Long time ago I was a boy scout leader, still teach an evening CS course at a Jr. college (but, have been at odds with admin., my department head, I think the kids like me (most important--and they are ok...), most women ditch other instructors/professors to take my course(s)--I like the idea of them in the field)... many "older" students in my class... this year it is Java (yuck)... .... work digital encryption/decryption methods/implementations here, just to keep out of the unemployment line... ....my first computer was a mainframe, my first desktop an apple--I recognized a "better idea" (IBM) when it came along... trust me, I am a "geeky type"... I set up a network in my garage so I could keep up with youth and remember mine, but now I have little to offer them, they keep the net and it has inspired some into the field... Everyone is aware of my fondness of radio, and I do make known what is available here--but placed besides IM and internet communications--radio is a pale color to the net... I am best at surfing the net, email and newsgroups for "entertainment/hobby pursuits"... I tinker, now and then with antennas... .... sorry to bore you... I really am as interesting as a rock! Warmest regards, John -- When Viagra fails to work--you are DOOMED!!!
