While I don't want to stereotype an entire subset of the net-user
community, my personal experience is that AOL is short for A**hOLe.
This is experience not just with c.s.m.a. but also other news-groups
that I frequent.  My postings usually don't attract flames on the net; 
AOLers send me emails with foul language in reply to what I've written.
