Well, that just goes to show that there are at least two kinds of people
in the world, people like you and people like me. I would most likely
drop off the list completely if it were moved to a bbs type system
because they are so slow and such a hassle to use. Not to mention that
they are soooooo 1970s.... All in all I find those sorts of things to be
a royal pain in the ass.
