LOL, this quote from a subscriber that didn't even have a computer made my day. BJ
:D :D :D

"I kind of thought it was like subscribing to the yellow pages," said Lewen. "We kept getting copies of the phone book, so I thought AOL was doing that. I also wanted the virus protection, because it was flu season."

Just saw an article that AOL/Time Warner is in settlement talks with the SEC to pay a $750 million settlement to cover fines, etc. for overstating revenues. Must be connected to those 40% without computers.....:D

My local gun club is happily receiving any and all "cast-off" AOL CD's. We use them in place of clay-pigeons on our skeet and trap range.

As an added bonus, they fly more erratically than a standard clay, don't know whether it's the shape or the content of the CD...:p

You can PM me for physical address, but we're only interested in quantity. ;)
