I liked the package of peanuts with the warning label: 'Caution! This product processed on machines used with peanuts!' -- Anyone wanting to run for any political office in the US should have to have a DD214, and a honorable discharge.

Because about 1-in-200 are allergic to peanuts, ALL nut products not processed on dedicated equipment must bear the warning: MANUFACTURED ON EQUIPMENT THAT PROCESSES PEANUT, OTHER TREE NUTS In out leftist world, the problem is best solved by no longer offering peanuts on airplanes. There's actually a law in Arizona forbidding the planting of olive trees, because some people are allergic to the pollen. Everyone ignores the law ;-) It is a natural human condition to get angry over our own personal failings and incompetent actions. But an interesting difference shows up when we compare political persuasion, right versus left. Those on the right get angry with themselves and attempt to correct the error of their ways. Those on the left also get angry, but look for someone else to blame. ...Jim Thompson -- | James E.Thompson, CTO | mens | | Analog Innovations, Inc. | et | | Analog/Mixed-Signal ASIC's and Discrete Systems | manus | | Phoenix, Arizona 85048 Skype: Contacts Only | | | Voice:(480)460-2350 Fax: Available upon request | Brass Rat | | E-mail Icon at http://www.analog-innovations.com | 1962 | The only thing bipartisan in this country is hypocrisy

Yes, although I don't think I'd really call being allergic to peanuts (or anything else) a personal failing. :-) |
