But NOT about technical issues??????? Why? Because, perhaps like the Jets and the Sharks, a number of the members of both groups hate eachother's guts. Fortunately, we're not living in the same neighborhood, so knife fights to the death are rare.. :-) It's gone too far to merge any of the personalities. Now it simply remains to be seen whether or not they can ever work together in any respect, or at the very least lay down their arms. Jordan -- (Jordan K.
