I am reminded of a time when someone who was probably schizophrenic walked into our church after a Bible Study (we were just standing around talking), and started giving us a bizarre speech. He sounded very reasonable, very rational, unless you paid attention to the words he was saying, started with vegetarianism, and went on to something about aliens who have the technology to "make the pants to keep us out of jail", or something to that effect. -- "It's bad manners to talk about ropes in the house of a man whose father was hanged." - Irish proverb http://members.tripod.com/~Nik_Taylor/X-Files http://members.tripod.com/~Nik_Taylor/Books.html ICQ: 18656696 AIM Screen-name: NikTailor
