	yep, i recall the story o the mope that was running 
for gov o Texas against Ma Richards got into the "official
state language" imbroglio.  his contention:  "If the English
language was good enough for our Lord, Jesus Christ, it's--
by God--good enough for the school children of Texas."

written in?  3;o)> 
	BTW, i was always taught that the sun dont move in
relation to the planets.  quite the contrary.  o course,
i been wrong afore.
