[Charles Forsythe] > It's true, I'm neither outspoken nor a prolific writer in this newsgroup, but I am a woman who is definitely pro-life. By the way, I am not at home (although I would like to work at home if the phone hookup charges were not so expensive), I am not currently barefoot, (although I do sometimes take off my shoes), and I am not currently pregnant. As for your final point, I am working on a Ph.D. in Computer Science, which may not necessarily indicate the computer know-how that many of you have, but I think it at least indicates that I am allowed to use a computer, at least occasionally. I am not asking for an apology, I'm just trying to provide some relevant information. Marlene Phillips Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
