In case no-one has noticed, many porn sites stick all sorts of things in their META tags so that search engines will bring up all sorts of uh, irrelevant sites. I mean, it's different if you spend all day at sites with names like lesbianlust.com or kiddieporn.com, but it's depressingly easy to get led into porn. I asked someone to check out Jean-Yves video on the nasdaq.com website, and he typed "nasdac" instead of "nasdaq" -- an easy enough mistake to make. This site would certainly give your PHB employer a hernia. >That said I've been on this list for about 3 weeks now and enjoy it a >great deal INCLUDING THE VARIETY OF HUMOUR that is part >of the regular contributions.

Some vague blandishment is always a sign of spam, a virus or porn. :-( Sad, really. )-: ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
