In my home country, I can get advice from any lawyer I know and trust - I will probably pay, but probably I can get somebody who will not rip me too much. If I have to pay for a Finnish lawyer who knows Finnish law (and I might only talk Tagalo - Probably no Finnish lawyers speak Tagalo!), well... you see, it is a bit unfair to me, as I have no means of defending myself! -- Gunnar Wolf - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - (+52-55)1451-2244 / 5623-0154 PGP key 1024D/8BB527AF 2001-10-23 Fingerprint: 0C79 D2D1 2C4E 9CE4 5973 F800 D80E F35A 8BB5 27AF -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
