Hey, some might consider those the "Good ol' days" of email. No HTML mail, no spam, no chain letters. Just useful information... usually. :-)

Yep. The very first person I met when I went on line (14 years ago) was the moderator of intelec-firearms. we're still good freinds. I'm on another private list that rose out of the ashes of or RIME.

Computers are too user freindly. Joe * as an example, I once posted on pirate asking if anyone knew what STFW meant. one reply came back saying how should the person be able to figure out what that means. So I suggested they "search the fawking web" to learn the answer. their reply? "what good would that do?" -- ... A bad sales move - mention Windows http://tigger.tmcom.com\~josad nqs@kfalls.net
