Sure, let's let {ucbvax,ihnp4,akgua,hplabs,sdcsvax} pay so this guy can
play with his Atari. After all, he can't afford it, but they
can. In fact, why not just post the entire contents of the BBS to
the net -- then *everybody* can pay for the phone time.
This doesn't even rate a :v} because it's not funny.
Every morning I get up and say "why do I flame so much on the net when
I'm trying to be kinder in my personal life?" Every night I run into these
bozos though...
