Oh, I though such things where regulated in the big advocrazy over
there by now, abusing you innecent children which could lead to a
life-long adiction and personallity changes. Everyone knows that EEs
and their younger relatives "hackers" doesn't know how to dress, they
talk obscure language and is fundamentally rude. They are sinister,
does not obey laws and are to blame for most disasters. They consume
large amount of money on equipment which they cant explain for a
normal citizen what they are good for. No, this should certainly been
made forbidden through a court ruling in most civilized states by now.

Oh, thou wounderfull banana republic!

Seriously, Scott, nice to hear that at least someone is taking an
understanding in your familly!
