I don't know, Joan. I think that Dave has things right. It *is* ridiculous.

Hmmm. I suppose that llizard laughing at the poor raccoon _is_ rather like the 
pot calling the kettle black....

its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.

Sorry, but I think it's been discontinued... :(
It's not super reliable-  sometimes I have to wait a day or two for it to work-
and then sometimes I can't shut it off... funny, it doesn't operate while the
washing machine is on...  And the washing machine doesn't operate while
it is working... perhaps there's a connection?

If _YOU_ say it is a racoon then it _IS_ a racoon.
