P.T. Barnum was Wrong as far as the recent Generations go.
 It should be;
"There is an IDIOT born every minute"

And even that may be too Optimistic!!  :-(  :-(



->  Excerpt from Tuesday's business news:

->  Geek Squad was a regional in-home outfit in Minneapolis which
->  installed and serviced computers and periphals.  Best Buy
->  bought out the company and expanded it nationwide to all
->  350 of its stores.

->  Now that Geek Squad is part of the company's national brand,
->  it has begun defending the word "geek" as a trademark.  Last
->  month the firm filed suit in federal court in Boston against
->  a small Massachusetts tech-services company, charging that
->  Geek Housecalls was infringing on Best Buy's trademark.
