Correct. It's as if I were a member of the President's cabinet and disagreed with the administration's policy. I'd try to persuade the President s/he was wrong, and if I felt strongly enough I'd resign, but I'd not act in defiance of that policy while remaining in the cabinet. -- Mark Mitchell CodeSourcery m...@codesourcery.com (650) 331-3385 x713
