Same goes for me! I got the Jasmine 80 meg drive the day after their
stated ship date. It is quieter with a fan than my Lo-Down 20 without
a fan. Last night I disconnected the Lo-Down after running them
together for a month. I recommend it too! 

After this how can I sell my Lo-Down with a straight face?

Sounds great.  I can see the headlines now..

        "President Orders Marines To Reestablish Usenet Link"

	"U.N. Votes Economic Sanctions"

	"U.S. Strikes Abandonded Oil Drilling Platform"

I'm afraid that the world just doesn't work that way.  Your insistence on
using Usenet for AI's business would only serve to disconnect some student at
a small college from Usenet.  Thus depriving him of a source of information
that at times can be most educational (such as net.jokes :-).

P.S. I received word today from Kevin Axelson (axelson@cgl.ucsf.edu) who
is with AI Headquaters in New York City that Mike Turing posted his request
for a newsgroup without consultanting Amnesty International.

Subject: 2 snow tires - front or back?

Okay, I know this has been mentioned here before, but here it is again:
let's say  I have a front-wheel drive automobile (say either an '87 
toyota celica or an '86 ford escort), and want to get snow tires.
I live in upstate New York in a hilly area, in Ithaca.  Now, if I only
have enough money to get two snow tires, do I put them on the back or
the front?  

I vote for the back, since I can forsee an accident when the front wheels
bite but the back of the car continues to push forward.  However my
friend believes that for getting up those hills, you need traction
in the front to pull you up.  

So, who's "right"?  Don't say "get four snow tires, dummy!", we're talkin'
PRINCIPLE here!  :)
