I posted a comment on the 'humor', nothing more. I happen to agree with the comment that the link was inappropriate for this list. I did not, nor would not post this in the first place. -ivan- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >One would think that with all the precautions that people take today that >one would not click on an unknown link.
