Re[2]: Almost afraid to ask

Hello Bill,

Go figure.  The complaints I've heard have been elsewhere--a few chat
rooms I've checked etc.  That;s why I just stay with FutureSource.  No
hassles, no down periods, etc. for approx addl $150 per month/$7 per
trading day/ and I get to spend evenings with family, reading etc
rather than screwing with refresh data etc.
