Also you can go to their site online and I think email them questions. They might even have something on this issue there as I think they have fought these battles in other places.*p*BTW.... we recommend that everybody actually join the ACLU and support them with their membership and their donations. Searle and I are both card carrying members. These are the guys whose only purpose in life is to defend the Constitution and are oft times the last resort of people being oppressed who can't afford high priced lawyers. They're a great bunch of folks in my experience.*p*Please let us know what you find out. I'll see if I can do some digging from this end as well.*p*Deborah*p**p*aodhfionn wrote,*br*: I hope this is the right place to post this.
