And then there are the masochists like me who LOVE having tons of e-mail to read...:) I like to log onto my computer at work, open up Pine, and mutter out loud, "Dang, only 100 new messages in the last 20 minutes!" On the same token, I love hearing what's going on in other parts of the country, it's my substitute for not being able to afford to travel much. :) Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
