Stephen, I wouldn't be too worried as I just saw a program about junk television advertising and it is not yet regulated. There are potential dangers. On the other hand, some lists are actually resident in different countries than the owners. I don't think that I would be concerned at this point. One thing which I have noted of the net as opposed to the old DARPA internet is that the new one is plagued with fear tactics: it always seems to be in a panic about something. -- Paul. -- Dr. Paul S. di Virgilio, University of Toronto [log in to unmask]
