Annie -

You're forgetting one small fact; viz., that "we" pay Bell Atlantic for
connection to his.com. BA not only profits from our connections to
his.com, but also profits from his.com's connectivity. 

Okay - - I am charged $20 for my conectivity from his.com to the Internet.
I'm also charged about $38 per month for my conectivity to his.com. 

Annie, you can't have it both ways.  Think about it.
