     One of the things I liked about "The Postman" were the messages.
Gordon is looking for security at first.  Then he learns to accept
responsibility as part of the price of freedom.  And finally starts
calling others to responsibility.  "Sundriver" and "Startide Rising" are
better, but this is good.
