Things like PayPal are       excellent proof that you cannot win for trying as it is stacked against users       in favour of sellers who can easily rip you off with absolutely no recourse.        Check it out and you will see for yourself.              Life is good,       Maurice              --- Msged/LNX 6.2.0        * Origin: The Pointy Stick Society XVI - Never been kissed (1:153/757.3)    |
