Good linked article. I am one of those who has begun cutting back on internet usage. First step was to scale back my high speed to the lowest offered. Next step will be to disconnect my home network from the highspeed modem and only allow one designated computer to have internet access.

just try to remember {as I do} its takes 2 wings for the eagle to fly... a left wing and a right one. Not sure where this fits into your bird metaphor but,... ....flight also has a need for lift (to overcome weight) and thrust (to overcome drag). <img src="../images/smiles/joke.gif" border=0 A

"Michael laughed along with everyone else, and took Mr. Eastwood's comments in the lighthearted spirit in which they were given." Yeah, I guess we all missed this important last line. So, pretty much this whole thread has been arguing

As for an evasion of Canada, if help isn't wanted I'm more than happy to sit back and wait, then do something once it is all over.

I'm also proud to be Canadian And with some of the sentiments expressed in this thread not only am I proud to be Canadian, I'm also grateful (as in, whew!)
