To paraphrase Capone, don't take me for an elitist or something -- being a
Third Worlder, I have seen the accessibility of the Web and the Internet make
the difference between apathy and hope in the future for a nation -- but
isn't one basic reason for the Proliferation etc. one of the Web's greatest
strengths:

o Almost anyone can write a Web page -- and does.

Besides, the bright side is we have one more field where our profession is
needed.

the American system."
Al Capone

That every poet is a fool,
But you yourself may serve to show it,
That every fool is not a poet!
<I forget the name -- contemporary of Keats>
<Can someone help me here?>
to a judge that threw his testimony out
because "poets are fools".
