I think that you are abusive. And why is that? Seriously, why do you feel the need to post such an unkind thing? ============================================= http://www.theinternetcompanion.net |

I think there is a matter of degree involving their intent and a broad spectrum of various motives, which encompasses the hapless idiot with some ability who thinks they can make a little from it, to those cynically exploiting the sick with full knowledge of what they are doing.
