Indeed. See Robert A. Heinlein's short story (well, actually just a short section of his novel "Time Enough For Love: The Lives of Lazarus Long") entitled "The Tale of the Man Who Was Too Lazy To Fail". It's about a man who hated work so much that he worked very, *very* hard so he wouldn't have to do any (and succeeded). -Rob ----- Rob Warnock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 627 26th Avenue <URL:http://rpw3.org/> San Mateo, CA 94403 (650)572-2607 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
