Thanks Kennita. Great to see you make that point!

I have told a number of people the same thing over and over again but
they just don't seem to get the message.

In fact, if Saul had *really* wanted to be helpful, he would have posted
the direct URL for the article:

http://www.lef.org/featured-articles/apr2000_clon_01.html

Of course, we both know why he did not do that 8>)

BTW, it is an excellent and highly informative interview which I
thoroughly recommend to all!
