Eg, if you find a way to transfer money to the CIS area, then someone (possibly a group of people) can easily dedicate 12 hours per day for this task :) -- Boris Popov http://www.butya.kz/~bp/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
