What I have read may, or may not, be true. Whilst I may have missed it, I didn't see anything on 'his/her' web site which stated that the picture of a blonde woman was a true representation of the MVP in question. Maybe it's there simply to cheer up an otherwise rather dull page! What you *think* you know from your Internet research may be totally incorrect - there really is no way of *knowing* the truth on line. Just remember, it was *you* who refused to have email contact with me, though of what you were afraid I have absolutely no idea. Mr Lipman will agree that email is a somewhat 'safer' medium than Usenet! Happy Easter to you, regardless! -- Dave - *not* thinking BTS is a bad guy! |
