I hate that too. :-P Bloodthirsty vultures. Some people will
stoop to any level to make a buck. The Internet was just great,
then these jerks move in like they own the place; if it were up to
them, they would! Most of these dimwits probably learned about the
Internet from a 20/20 broadcast and went something like, "Duhhhh, let's
rape and pillage this thing for all its worth, or at least until it
collapses into total ruin!" These people are the absolute opposite of
everything that the Internet has ever stood for. Grrr..... (Sorry,
kind've of a sore spot for me, as if you couldn't tell.) :-)

I like these two. I'm not sure which one I like better;
I think I prefer dak.net, but I'm too tired to be sure. :-)
