   You have been a BBS User for a long time and I would had thought that You   
   know that I wasn't a normal person from reading messages that I post.

   I usually don't watch or listen to TV or Radio when the News is being told   
   about.   
      
   I use Mailwasher free and Mozilla Thunderbird for Email.   
   If I see an unwanted Email after I used Mailwasher to see if the Mail   
   Server has any for me I will go to the Web Mail site and delete that message,   
      
   Before I Sign In to the Email option, I will see aome links to News Articles   
   and I may read the summary of a few of them and then go do what I wanted to   
   do, then I Sign Out and use Mailwasher to check Email again, and then   
   Get Email with Thunderbird and read the messages.   
      
   I don't use the computer for any bsnking, If I want to buy something I see   
   advertised by a Companies internet page, I will call their toll free number   
   to see if they will accept my personal check for the item and then send what   
   I ordered when the check has cleared.  Works for me.

   Thanks for the idea.   
      
   I've learned about accessories being made for the Commodore 64 that have   
   a CAT-5 connector that I could run a cable from that to a port on the Router   
   to use the internet with the C=64.   
   And it might be the same accessory that has a SD Card slot built in on it.   
      
   Both of those things have crossed my mind, but I haven't desired to shell out   
   any cash to buy new things for the c=64.
