More off topic: Reminds me of Garrison Keillor (American humorist and radio show host, if anyone doesn't know) telling how ice fisherman in his Minnesota hometown decide who among them will be the first to go out on the ice in his pickup truck to make sure it's safe for everyone else. They just choose the guy who last went through the ice, figuring the chances of the same guy going through twice are pretty slim. ;) (Granted, in the penguin case, the last penguin to get eaten by a predator is no longer around to try again!) - John -----Original Message----- From: Hanson, Jon [mailto:jhanson@l...] Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2001 4:29 PM To: xml-dev@l... Subject: RE: DOM or SAX: Sense and Sensibility Off topic aside;- Whilst it's well known how a pack of penguins will wait for another to enter the water before they do for fear of predators, it was less known how they solve the problem of who enters the water first. It turns out they solve the problem nicely by pushing one into the water first and seeing what happens... jon ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This message may contain information which is private, privileged or confidential and is intended solely for the use of the individual or entity named in the message.
