I can't believe I understood this correctly, but, here goes: I have had a minimal AOL account for many years. Until wifi came around, I sometimes used it for dialing up when traveling. I haven't used it for that for years now. But two of our kids have aol email accounts as their default, so I've kept it since it was just a few bucks a month. This month, I got a bill for $68. The customer support person carefully explained to me that that was because I've been on AIM a lot this month. For every hour over my service plan, they charge me $2.50. But, she said, had I downloaded my AIM client from www.aim.com instead of www.aol.com, it would have been free. So, let me get this straight. If all I use is AIM, I can pay AOL about $70/month or I can get it for free. Hmm, let me think... Hey, kids, you're about to get a great opportunity to make up new email addresses. Posted

> Your an idiot.
Hmmm... Maybe you SHOULD detail your reasons?

I just love people like the first person to post here. They are accusing you of being an idiot, and yet they break a very simple rule of grammer by writing "your"(a posessive term) instead of the proper "you're" (the shortened version of "you are").
Oh well - I think we have at least there is one idiot around here!

Stephen shouldn't throw stones at "your" when he can't even spell grammar
