I was just astounded to listen to a friend and co-worker of my wife talk about his trips to Canada. He's made a bit over half a dozen trips across the border so far, and has been detained for detailed questioning on about three of them, and had his car thoroughly searched on two other occasions. As a credit to the Canadians, all these instances were on the US side, coming back from Canada. America evidently has a long way to go with respect to race relations. It's sad. -Mike Pelletier. - -- - -- "[It will] be very hard to increase browser share on the merits of [Internet Explorer] alone.

Then it's peh-shuh-TAIR-ee-an. Sh, not sk. BUT, as the English-speaking world is wont to do, they've prob'ly changed the pronunciation of this, as has been done with many words of Latin origin.
