Sorry, I didn't mean to be 'dismissive', it's just my experience with people
who wear 'suits' that gives me the willies. Perhaps I should walk a mile in
another man's slacks? Eeeewww. ;)

I know that, as David J. pointed out, we gotta deal with the 'suits' at least on
some level. I just wish everything didn't always seem to come down to who has
the bucks. As I said to David, I really hope that the Internet does not end up
as just one big shopping mall, and that's the sense I'm getting from all of
this.

I am not without hope though, look how far we've come since '94, and for most
of that time there was very little money involved. I'm 38, but I guess I
haven't gotten rid of that idealistic streak, ya know?

Oh, and glad we're not calling each other names anymore :)
