[Ack, my profound apologies for the earlier empty message -- my fumble-
fingers strike again...]

In the immortal words of Dr. Manion:

A whole two years?

That would be less time than AOL itself has been on the net (or at
best, roughly the same time), and certainly a heck of a lot less
time than Brad has been kicking around.  Perhaps you'd like to try
a more productive line of argument?

The internet is well over 20 years old these days.  If you didn't have 
a mailing address in the .arpa domain (or one with bangpaths), 
pulling rank based on age is is kinda silly.

ANS.  Howland.  mirrors.aol.com.  Suing cyberpromo.  That's off
the top of my head -- can we talk about something relevant now?
