And while we're at it, what's with all driving on the same side of the
road, anyway? It's an affront to individualism, I tell ya!
And how about the telephone -- ten keys and all. I think I should be
able to buy a phone with as many numbers as I want, and to call people
with numbers I can remember, not some silly number the phone company
assigned to them.
And why the heck do words have to be in any particular order? Mean I,
should words mean want exactly what I to them, they shouldn't?

increases or price increases. There's a series of parts of the formula
that are being considered. And when you couple that, those different
cost drivers, affecting those -- changing those with personal
accounts, the idea is to get what has been promised more likely to be
-- or closer delivered to that has been promised. Does that make any
sense to you? -- George W. Bush ::::
