	Same to you.  Have you read all of the posts about this, or did your 
psychic newsreader filter them?

	Did you?  What about the second, her response?  This person from AOL 
is raising unholy hell because somebody at another site had the temerity to 
actually not allow them to use that site's equipment.  Are you going to grant 
me and everyone else the unlimited right to make use of your equipment?  After 
all, her logic applies even more to you, you're a federal site, not an 
educational one.  

	If so, I would like to make use of all your bandwidth to send my swap 
file to myself in order to verify the contents and the integrity of the 
intervening connections.  I may need to do this 50 or 60 times.  A day.  I 
would also like to store my collection of porn, around 300 meg, on your spool. 
 Three to five times, for sufficient redundancy to avoid corruption.  You have 
a problem with that?  HOW DARE YOU!  I'M A TAXPAYER, I BOUGHT THAT EQUIPMENT!

	This was exactly the person's logic.

Regards,
    The Gentleman
