[GLLUG] aliases

I am new to RH distro and have a basic question.

After login, when I type the command 'alias' I get the following output.
	alias l.='ls -d .* --color=tty'
	alias ll='ls -l --color=tty'
	alias ls='ls --color=tty'
	alias vi='vim'
	alias which='alias | /usr/bin/which --tty-only --read-alias --show-dot --show-tilde'

I would like to modify them a little bit to my taste.  I tried to look for where these aliases were defined but cannot find them.
The /etc/profile and /etc/bashrc do not have any of the above aliases defined.  I searched thru all the files in /etc and did not
find any there either.

Where are these aliases defined?  Are these compiled into the 'bash'?

PS - RH distro does impress me now.  Few years ago (1997) it did not.  Thanks Mike for the copy of RH.
