I don't know if this is newsworthy but I would sure love to wake people up to this fact. AOL advertised 500 hours free on their software and in small print are the words (in your first month) That would mean you would have to be on line over 16 hours a day and get 7.9 hours of sleep in a 31 day month. That was insulting enough but when I saw their latest add (see the popup at www.aol.com ) the hours have been increased to 700 hours (in your first month) Which reduces your sleep time to 1.4 hours a day. I am amazed that they can make such an offer and even more amazed at the people who are lured by it. Thanks for reading, a reply would be appreciated.
