It sure sounds like I'll have to pay, so someone decides for me, wether some piece of info is important to me. Now, if that isn't the first step to censorship! That kind of reminds me of an insurance company where I can call a toll-intensive number to talk to a salesman who tries to sell my something I don't really need. ----------< fate favors the prepared mind >---------- Remo Pini Fon 1: +41 1 350 28 82 mailto:rp@rpini.com Fon 2: +41 1 465 31 90 http://www.rpini.com/remopini/ Fax: +41 1 350 28 84 --------< words are what reality is made of >--------
