The thing I might quibble with, if indeed it makes any difference, is that "murder ordered from on high" is a possibility that reasonable people must view with fear and great caution; and as much light as possible must be shone upon relevant events in order to eliminate the possibility (and reinforcing the justice that makes it unlikely in the future), or in the worst case, reveal it and deal with it for the sake of justice and the health of our democratic republic. You might say that I'd like to increase a healthy respect for transparency among those in positions of authority. xponent Reinforce Meritocracy Maru rob _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
