having kids is right.  Most people think making sure the hungry are fed
and the cold clothed is right.

the next Einstein, Gauss, Faulkner or Stallman.

We can teach that... that's fine.  I'm all for teaching that.  But for the
kids that already exist, we have to give them everything we can to make
things better for the next round.
