Right. On one of my 300-mile round trips to DC, I accumulated beaucoup
positive carbon-credits by hitch-hiking <joke intended> .

What I meant was that so many of us went to DC that the school was
effectively down. It was/is UN Sec Gen Kofi-Annan's (among others) alma
mater;  foreign affairs mattered to us then,  as they do now.

"Home automation" and its successors has a role to play in changing the
world positively. The discussion in this newsgroup is having difficulty
rising to the challenge however.
