You know, as I've watched the techniques of the very professional spokes-liars for the Tobacco companies over the past year, I've reflected on the similarity of techniques to OSA's PR TR-L tek. Very smooth, unruffleable facade. Lying with a straight face. Never admit the truth until forced to, and only then where there is overwelming evidence you are lying. Thoroughly discredit the source of the proof. When caught, and you can't escape, be contrite. +--------------------------------------+ Rev.
