And AOL takes a lot of coins. I *think* they have it down to $2.00 an
hour, but that can still add up quick.
Anyway, some people who should know better seem to be forgetting that
the net is not a homogenous body. It is thousands of systems, in over a
hundred countries, and each one has its own lord and master. It is no more
appropriate for her to complain about how Fletcher run his site than it would
be for me to complain about how Dave runs his.
BTW Dave, can I move my porn collection to your spool yet?
