I'm getting a little impatient with the whiners myself. For the last 3 days, all
I've read is WHINE, WHINE, WHINE. I think my computer even froze because of all
the tears attached to the emails and it's all your fault!! If you don't like the
subject matter, try adding "OFF TOPIC" to your email filter to send to "Trash".
If you don't like my emails, just filter them to trash.
I really don't know what the fussy fuss is all about. I've been online for 3
hours with a 56K. Netscape has automatically downloaded 11 emails during this
time and my surfing hasn't been affected at all. The irony here is that half of
them have been WHINING emails about OFF TOPIC. You don't hear me WHINING about
that do you??!! LOL.
