Salve!

  Oh, very well: "Thought processes of..."
  Here I thought I'd finally solved part of the 'Mystery of the Soul-less Lawyers'!

  Trust me - with the Bush Administration I am getting nowhere near my tax dollars' worth!

Vale

"Thought process of", please. I, or anyone, would never be able to
*find* the soul of a lawyer - even with a microscope. :)

The society we live in, of course! We get all the government and law
we've paid for and deserve... this is one of the reasons that I sound
off in NR when I see anyone proposing a law that would add more burdens
to the people's lives - I don't think we need to recreate _everything_
we have in the US, but only the best of it.

Indeed. That's how laws, internal philosophies, and good machinery get
built.
