Pull the other one, mate. You don't have the constitutional right to speak for anybody but yourself. If you want to vote the way you "think" a fetus would, go ahead -- I won't challenge your ability to think like a fetus. -- Charles Forsythe CSDF@MIT-VAX "We pray to Fred for the Hopelessly Normal Have they not suffered enough?" from _The_Nth_Psalm_ in _The_Book_of_Fred_
