Quote of the day (fwd) -- sounds like the USA

[David Farber <farber () central cis upenn edu>]

"THE  VERY  BIG  STUPID is a thing which  breeds  by  eating  The
Future.  Have  you seen it? It sometimes disguises  itself  as  a
good-looking  quarterly bottom line, derived by closing  the  R&D
Department."


   Frank Zappa, "The Real Frank Zappa", 1989
