        I hope that's not a threat. :-)



        I don't know what's going to happen after I'm dead, but my faith

as an atheist tells me that death is oblivion. I actually take a certain

amount of comfort from that - oblivion may not be desirable, but it's

nothing to fear either. If I'm wrong then I'll probably feel pretty

stupid, but let's face it - we'll _both_ feel pretty stupid if it turns

out that the Vikings were right after all...
