*sigh*
I am noticing that there seem to be very few experts with, shall we say, first hand experience with this here?
The pun-tendre (pun-tahn-dra) only referring to those least present at a techie BBS... especially when talking about sex.
If we really wanted to know, instead of asking for government funds, maybe we should just be asking the politicians themselves.
I am sure Clinton, Hart or Edwards would be able to help us out on this... as well as quite a few Repubs (if they can remember that far back...).
