I think the idea is that it is very easy these days to steal papers and automate what is essentially a composite stolen paper. At least this way the teach can get an idea the kid actually did the work honestly. After all, in school, you still haven't completely got out of the "get somewhere" crowd and into the "I'm an engineer because I actually like doing that" crowd yet. We older fogies don't always see that context. xc > > > Dave > > -- No More Support For Liars!
