TANSTAAFL It isn't free. It's pre-paid. But if it's available and you have to pay for it anyway you might as well take advantage. I admire those who abide by their principles to their own detriment but I'm too old, too jaded, and too disgusted with the whole thing to do that. I'm going to get everything I can even while I oppose it politically. My intent is to pass on to my children whatever I don't have to use myself. At least then they get something back. As for everybody else, scroom.
