BobB 0 #6 August 15, 2003 Along the "dirty laundry" line... I have had somebody, purportedly a high-ranking Niegerian banker or something, tell me that I could have 30% of 20.2 million dollars just for sending them a lot of my money. I've gotten that scam-mail a couple of times. Open proxies are a disease. Yes, I know it is snowing. No, we are not putting the top up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
