Web-based forums have got to be about the most inefficient, cumbersome way there is to communicate, other than smoke signals. But... they have smiley faces and stars! Besides, don't you know that Internet = www? At least, that's how it seems to be these days. Its depressing. ....and Milt, you forgot to mention the morons who reply to 3 y/o posts, where the fix was actually in the post. I firmly believe WebTV had the right idea. -- "Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you." |
