I read Mr. Reilly's article and it struck me as interesting that I could
read it due to the open and free standards set by WC3 for html coding of
text and graphics.  I was able to read it on a 6 year old mac using a
netscape browser through an independent isp routing to a local phone line
connecting to a modem I bought off the shelf and viewed on a screen in
millions of colors.

In other words....get over it.

It isn't Jamie or Mr.N....it is demand and innovation in its purest
form....interest and passion for something bigger than was here
before.....and really meaningful to a culture of people....in this case a
world of people....and i think they are being led more by a scandinavian
group than anyone in DC.

The funny thing is that to have both capitalism and a free society, there
must also be responsibility to and for the culture.  Without
responsibility....neither of the other two can survive.

I noticed recently that an individual who had been the vice president for
ethics of a major telephone corporation recently made a career move to
become a vice president for ethics at a major computer
manufacturer.....which illustrates how incredible the demand for ethics
administrators has grown in corporate America.

Thanks for your indulgence.
