Hm......o.k.......but then......hypothetically speaking, mind you.......anyone who thinks that trying to keep his missives from being archived is a "pussy" AND uses a pseudonym because he has ample reason to want to remain anonymous is going to look kind of silly whichever end of it you look from........right? ![]() Wolfgang |

I don't know. Maybe hypocritical, dishonest, and perhaps even self-delusional, but I wouldn't go so far as to say he's silly (else I'd have to slap an X-No-Archive on). |
