Is it possible to find out the link?  I have relatives in SLC and Provo 
working in the tech sector, They tell me there is no connection.  If there 
really is one, a gentle clue stick should resolve the issue.  As I said, the 
Mormon church will go a long way to avoid the kind of publicity that SCO is 
getting.  I really do find it hard to believe....  (I find it easy to believe 
that a member of the Mormon church is a majority investor, however.)
