I REALLY HATE it when people have this obsession with the word "alot". I accidentally made the mistake of spelling "a lot" "alot" once - and got this letter saying "A lot is two words". That was it - no signature, nothing else. So I returned the mail saying: "Right. And 'eat sh*t and die' is four words." Just placating a pet peeve... Beth Mazur {ihnp4,ima,mirror}!inmet!mazur
