Dear Tom:
Hi. How are you? I'm fine. How's the wife and kids?
Really, Tom "I Rarely Find The Facts Out Before Posting" Neff, you really
*should* find out the facts before posting. I upload my code to a total
of three places. That's enough, for a $10 product, to provide for a
full-time income for me and for my assistant. Usenet happens to a horrid
place for registrations because of attitudes such as the one you're so
proud of representing.
No other channel tries so hard to justify itself for lack of registrations,
either.
