My mother paid for my inclusion in one of those books. We all knew it was a scam, but she wouldn't hear it. Still, today, if you ask her about it she'll proudly show you her son's photo in the Who's Who book. (FWIW, Mom knows she was taken for a ride, but her pride refuses to admit it to anyone.) -- Scott (I love my Mommy) Loveless http://www.twosixteen.com/fivetoedsloth/ __o _'\<,_ (*)/ (*) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
