Assuming that there are no limitations on the number of characters per post as there are on other forums, I have submitted the entire text and feature pictures for the Showcase.
I'm extremely impressed with this one... A find worthy of it's own category in the showcase. Outstanding!! 8-)

Thank you, Rongo.

The post formatting for the forum really makes the article 'pop' on the computer screen.

No shit. Me too. Hell of a find Matt.
“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
