This reminds me of my Indian co-worker who loves to take vacations out West, renting a big car and driving everywhere. Don't know what his current feelings are, but for years, he was in love with "open road" Interstates, since they are so different from what's in India. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson, LA USA PGP Key ID 8834C06B I prefer encrypted mail.

Any simple and effective solution against spam would defeat revenues and drive several companies into bankrupt, would make consultants jobless. ... Have a single, simple, and permanent solution to the problem and - boom - this billion dollar market is dead. That's one of the reasons why people are expected to live with spam. They have to live with it to make them buy anti-spam software. Content filters are perfect products to keep this market alive." Hadmut Danisch
