Even a flatworm, the least evolved organism on this planet with a spinal cord, will turn from pain. Can those 'legitimate users' just subscribe like the rest of us do?? Obviously with the link in place, we're becoming abused too. Just say "No." to abuse. Switch on the CRM114 discriminator. Send them the bill while you're at it. Oh yeah, you being a Texan (just a stone's throw from being an Okie, but I won't dare call you that!), you forgot cilantro in your chili recipe! Gotta have a pinch, according to my perspectives. I lived in Odessa and Houston for about 10 years. To me and my tastes, that is the secret! Give it a try. See if your eyes don't light up and your tummy say "HOWDY!" or as one of my less-than-couth friends from Odessa would say with his West Texas Drawl, "It taste's so good, it'll make your tongue hard." <grins> Ric -- ================================================ My father, Victor Moore (Vic) used to say: "There are two Great Sins in the world... ...the Sin of Ignorance, and ...the Sin of Stupidity.
