Hi Michael,

hehe.. That's why I knew I wanted to get them reduced asap.

People know I don't normally mind (fidonet people and users).. When I see some
businesses like Microsoft hammering my web pages, that's when I get PO'd (grin)
and others like them clearly running a business and not giving the stuff away
for free like we do.   But I use bandwidth controls to deal with it mostly..
and a script I'm working on should take care of the problem.. when I ever get
it done :)

Yes, I've been to an airport that small as well.. instead of departing the
plane in a tunnel or whatever, you climbed down the steps of the plane and were
'on the ground' (g).  No real terminal at all to speak of.  I don't remember
ever leaving from one that small though.. maybe years ago at Stewart in NYS
before they got a little larger.

The best ones I liked used whole red peppers and lemon grass..

I'll just eat lots of steak and eggs .. I love hot fudge sauce though -  It's
quite addictive :)

Take care,
Janis
