  20. Not quite right for me. I won't speak for Bob.
  21.  
  22. I'm not out to *punish* anyone.  However, I feel that if
  23. a man doesn't bother to find out about the *birth* (note: not
  24. necessarily the pregnancy) then he has forfeited his right
  25. to stop an adoption.  
  26.  
  27. I am not prepared to apply that claim to *all* parental rights.
  28. (Happy?  No, probably not.)
