Does AOL have to be the management in charge of the browser? I think
not... Variants aready exist, like the one with higher crypto from

AOL didn't step down, someone dug into the earth for a lower level of
incompetence. What next? Canine browsers? (Laughing, but not kidding,)
You could do that with my product, you know... only three push buttons!
We wanted to interest some high school kids in using my three key TabTalk
browser idea for science fair projects using mice... letting them contol
something like water, food, and temperature as proof of the simplicity and

Listen, ther is a lot of money to be made in sinking ships if you can
