I expect you have all seen them as well. Now, I am not making rash judgements, but many of them came from notesfile sites, and of the random samples I looked at, all of them seemed to have a notesfile site in the path to my machine. The net is having enough trouble with volume without having to force a week or so of old news down its throat as well, so could people please look around and see if they have a malfunctioning system? as always, chuq -- From behind the bar at Callahan's: Chuq Von Rospach {fortune,menlo70}!nsc!chuqui (408) 733-2600 x242 If everyone marches to the beat of a different drummer, why does mine have to use a bongo?
