It's the few who you see on TV (like in Washington, and when some big thing happens in small towns and get invaded by the same old people from the "big networks and papers" that end up making the rest of us look bad. That being said, I think that if pressure from people to make our papers more sensational would stop (like if they'd read the good ones and not the National Enquirer), they'd have a lot less to complain about because the good papers will have more resources to work with. ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Never forget: 2 + 2 = 5 for extremely large values of 2.
