Now hold up a sec! Whilst I agree with Todd, berating Benjamin over something he has no control over won't actually accomplish anything. He has stated, previously, that he has no control over what the server admins do on their machines, and I (...) (26 years ago, 10-Oct-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.us, lugnet.admin.general)
