Since my E-mail to you keeps bouncing back I will respond here, Wasting more
Bandwidth, Time and Money.

I was having problems posting to the newsgroups in question, but was able to
post to other groups so I knew My newsserver was working ok, so to SAVE time
and money MY reposts (of which I made two or three) consisted of the word
test.  Only one of the reposts showed up. I could have posted the several
page article several times to see if any and how many of them showed up, but
in an attempt to be nice (to those of you who do have to pay for access)
I posted one word only.

I don't know how that works, but does E-mail also cost (send and recieve)?
If so, by my count you sent 67 words back to me, isn't that rather expensive
way to complain about the cost of one word.

Larry Billings

PS:  Could you please send me via E-mail or post to the net the OFFICIAL
unabridged list of acceptable topics for the newsgroup, so I will NEVER
post anything UNAPPROPIATE again.  I would be so grateful to you.

Well, with the election over it's time for a new .sig [not that the old one
is not appropriate, it's even more appropriate] but let's review it.

Most of us are sad,

[Well, the rest will be soon enough]

No one let's it show,

[And you will have no money to show]

I've been shadows of myself,

[But could still see my position better than most]

How was I to know?

[Can't answer that, but I did know]
