No, I don't think that would be likely to work.

Hmmm..Yes, I think so. Worse, in fact. Anyone with an IQ above
body temperature could see that Bredy's claim to represent Kodak
was a joke. The same could not be said for forgeries.

Actually, it is.

Actually, though, I don't think that you being a salesdroid would
impress much of anyone.

Yep, but I don't own my own machine. There is only a certain
amount of latitude I have. Enough that I'm not likely to lose
my access for anything I write, though.

In any case, there are a very large number of public access sites
Mr. Bredy could get access from.

Says ME. My .sig follows.

Now, you posted most of my sign, then deleted "I will hack unix for
food" and made a joke based on that. STOOPID.

>What? They don't pay you now? 
Oh, they pay me just fine, thanks.
It's a JOKE, son....
