I don't think computers were invented to save people time. That didn't work
for me, anyway: I spend 8 to 10 hours a day behind a computer, and I
wouldn't earn my money without them. Most of all, using a computer is *fun*.
My recent trip to the USA just shows that: I met a lot of people whom I
would never have heard of if the internet did not exist.

Of course I don't need to convince you of that. But maybe mr. Van Horn can
reconsider?... 8-)
