My point is precisely that actual friends you can rely on for anything, even if trivial, are much, much more scarce than people think. A funny thing is that University Mafias are composed of people who are not friends to each other but actualy cover for each other. You can tell of Cathedratics who don't like somebody, yet they still do favors to that person in order to get the favor in return later. Meanwhile, a lot of average folks don't get that relationships have a maintenance cost and if you are not contributing at all you will get eventually cut out. -- gopher://gopher.richardfalken.com/1/richardfalken --- þ Synchronet þ Palantir BBS * palantirbbs.ddns.net * Pensacola, FL .
