So if you drive off the one or two percent that are binary junkies you a) get rid of some meddlesome and loud whiners and b) save a shitpot on bandwidth costs. Win-win (wun-wun) sitiation already. The beauty of it is, you drive them straight to the competition where they start sucking major bandwidth _and_ whining ever so loudly. -- Hal Burgiss
