Sandy,
That's got to be one of the rudest things I've heard on the 'net in
awhile. You are lucky enough to be posting from, surprise, a University.
So I think it safe to say that *you* aren't paying squat for your ebullient
plethora of posting.
Regardless of whether or not it costs anyone any money at all to
send/receive 'net messages, it costs all of us the *time* it takes to wade
through all of that crap. And that certainly is certainly *not* a trivial
amount of cost.
Geez,
John
