James,

Yeah. so? I only really visit International sites. Whatever happened
to the notion of an Internet without geographical boundaries? And
whatever happened to the notion of "unlimited, unrestricted" Internet
access?

Sometimes I wonder why we don't have a religion to idolise money. Then
I realise we already have something better that idolises money - society.
