Au contrair (sp?) Greg. Ada will survive "of the Mandate, for the Mandate, and by the Mandate." People inside the Mandated World care because it is their job (which wouldn't exist without the Mandate) to care. Look at Straussman; he was so sure of the survival of Ada that he left his job before his job left him. Ada will survive because it is part of the Declaration of Ada-pendence. ;-( -- |================= #include ================///=============| | "AMIGA: The computer for the creative mind" (tm) Commodore /// Weber State | | "Macintosh: The computer for the rest of us"(tm) Apple \\\/// University | |== "I think, therefore I AMiga" -- val@csulx.weber.edu ==\///= Ogden UT USA =|
