   Put your money where your mouth is.  Actions speak louder than   
   words.  If you truly believe such a constitutional amendment is   
   needed, you'll get off usenet, go out into the real world, and   
   work to get your idea implemented.  But you don't really believe   
   it, at least you don't enough to actually do something about it.
