Man! I'm not sure what to think about that.  I believe Bruce's motives are 
correct, and what he is saying is absolutely true, I'm just concerned about 
what a lawyer might twist it into.  At some point we have to say "damn the 
lawyers" and simply say and do what is right.  I believe I will sign the 
petition, but not after giving it more thought.
