Have you ever heard of a staple, or tape.  

I admit it.  I have something to hide.  My life.  It is not as if
anyone would really care about my life, but on top of that, I don't
want people to know anything about me unless I tell them.  Obviously
not possible with all the databases out there saying exactly what I
have bought with credit crads and every magazine I subscribe to, but
I don't want them to know.

Is that a problem?

I worry about privacy because I cherich it and want it.  You can go le
let anyonw snoop in your machine.  Me, I'll just leave Windows 95 alone.
