ya mean kinda like why not go outside to smoke?  :>)  

as a light smoker (1 pack of filter-less camels/week), i find this all amusing.
i have no problem going outside to smoke at other's homes.  usually do it at my
*own* home.  re: crapping - sometimes i smoke in the bathroom, that's all i'm
saying about it!  :>)

jeez, i'm honored, but no need to except me - what's good for the goose is good
for the gander.  

personally, i find the chemicals emitted into one's home thru tobacco smoke,
excrement, etc., a tad bit different than the warm fuzzy glow emitted into your
environs from a computer screen.  caps, non-caps, mis-spellings - the lite's
yust the same, so's the odor.  the delete key is yust as close, too.

i recently replied to a post from luca, that eyetalian turbo-75 owner.  i made a
conscious effort to go back & correct all my 'murricun homilies that coulda
confused the poor soul.  i figger that's reasonable - *he* had specific
questions - if i wanna help him, mite as well try to make it understandable for
him.

freedom seems to come at the expense of order - oh well, can't make everyone
happy.

ciao for now,

doug "likes freedom" sedon
