dialing then cut out to the handset.

Don't feel annoyed when the internet doesn't work, it's a miracle that it
works at all.

I do not flash my email address around - then I can flame without being
mailbombed! :-)

sales@msn.com - that's for restricting access to the Startrek.com site to
MSN members.
