Yes...and we are headed for some big time Internet crashes...
Now that big bucks and lawyers are entering the scene, a new

constituencies will follow...
This is the first "Election Year" in the U.S. where the Internet will
play a major role in the outcome...
...maybe by the year 2000 there will be an Internet Party and candidate...
