Just a small additional twist on Mike's msg...
In the course of the thread on "Compassion & Sense of Beauty," I learned
to my surprise that at least one corporate gateway in the Middle East
processes each incoming internet message, rejecting any that contain
"forbidden words." It appears that the word "God" will cause a msg to be
rejected at the gateway.
