    Have you ever noticed how similarly the minds of David Barry and Scott
    Adams work? In "The Dilbert Future", a new SA book which regularly has
    me putting my head on the desk quaking with hilarity, he talks about
    all the Senior Citizens taking Tai Kwon Do. They claim it is to build
    up strength and balance, but Scott sez it is because they know there
    will only be a limited amount of resources for the elderly in the
    future. THose who did not invest in their IRA's but have learned 
    Kwon Do will be able to beat up those who did invest, and take their
    lunch money.

RE .3 - I agree, I've noticed the similarity, too.  Sometimes I think of
Scott Adams as kind of a techno-geeky version of Dave Barry... :-)
