OH NO!!, are we going to go through with this again. I would think that
everyone had caught on to this silly scam a long time ago. I do wish that
this BOZO would not waste our time and bandwidth.


Also, it seems that a large percentage of postings like this seem to
originate from portal. Am I being fair in saying this ??

STOP useless meaningless wastes of time, bandwidth, and disk usage !!!!

JUST SAY NO TO NANOOK OF THE NORTH !!!!
