|Yeah, but that _is_ the whole point... the responsibility has to be 
|_total_ and _just you alone_ carrying it all...no one else.  
'---------------------

I`m a child then... I guess I`d better stop reading and contributing to the
group huh?

|Well now _that_ alone can be one _helluva_ responsibility to pay the 
|traffic and time bill at the end of every month. 
|
|Some guys think nothing of $200/300 monthly and I'm certainly not 
|surprised they are blase' about it if their mothers are shelling out 
|every month!  Yikes! What a life some people have these days!  :-( 
'---------------------
The net bill is �30 a quarter, and I pay the phone bills. My mum pays the same
regardless of how much I use the net each month, as my time is unlimited.

.---------------------
|And some people get Freebie Accounts at their place of employment or
|education...bully for them...but, then when the leave they grizzle and 
|snuffle saying they can't afford to continue with their Net access. 
|Bleah! do you think that my handerchief becomes soaked with 
|crocodile tears at the thought of their deprivation and sudden 
|departure?
'---------------------
Hehe..... My school are two cheap and nasty to get a net connection.

.---------------------
|Where I live and sit I have to pay all my own ISP bills...$31 June; 
|$34 July, and those are big numbers for me...less than $20 monthly 
|would be my average bill. 
'---------------------
I feel sorry for you man. <g>
