Sue him for libel, why don't you. You'll also notice that he rearranged your message a little, and inserted the "[credit card slips]" comment. You don't suppose he did all that just because he wanted to make an informative comment, and only extracted the part of your message he wanted to responded to, adding something to make up for lost context? Nah, couldn't be. He most have been trying to smear your good name. Scott McEwan {ihnp4,pur-ee}!uiucdcs!mcewan "Hideously disfigured by Indian curse? We can help!
