bash not reading ~/.bashrc

["Roberto Sanchez" <sanchezr@hotmail.com>]

Why is it that when I switch to a text console with <Ctl>-<Alt>-<F1> that 
bash does not read in my ~/.bashrc?

When I pull up a terminal in X it works fine (all my command aliases are 
there).  And when I log in to a text console, if explicitly type in the 
command 'bash' at the bash prompt, the new shell reads it in.  But the top 
level shell from text login does not read it.

Any ideas?
