It's often called Freedom of Choice, and Freedom of Expression.[:0] <br /> <br />c]...I'm not mad at you, but if you have a point, it is nebulous to say the least.[?] <br /> <br />d]...Actually, that's not true.....quite a few railroads were built strictly as leverage tools....to extract government land grants which could be sold, to try and bring down a competitor, or to swindle shareholders.That's why there were so many duplicitous parallelling routes established during the days of the "robber barons".[:(] <br />regards <br />Mike[:)]
