I would favour a system where the poster pays to post an article, but I think there are technical and legal problems with implementing such a system. To satisfy my curiosity, can anybody provide a reasonable estimate of how much it costs other people when I post a 100-line article? -- David Canzi "For every bloke who makes his mark, there's half a dozen waiting to rub it out." -- Andy Capp
