   probably try to get in on myself...]

I would personally suggest that no one ever send credit card information via  
email.  It's not that I don't trust Irving or his company, but I *strongly*  
suggest that no one should assume that your email message will not be seen  
on the way to Irving.

Free advice, that's all.  When using credit cards, then write or call.
Don't go with email (until email encryption is a reality :-).

Other peoples opinions on this may differ, I'm just suggesting that people  
think about it.
