A response to all those people wanting pictures... I would recommend you go back in your news reader and see what has been posted since you have been on. There are less then 500 (I think) so it shouldnt take you that long. If you dont know how to do it..then now would be a good time to try it out and learn how. There were 4 posts way back when containing the cow stuff one person requested. Most likely (or I would hope) people wouldnt post it again. Maybe someone would be nice enough to email you a copy but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE dont keep posting the same picture over and over again. -Tyler

With so much news out there, most sites these days won't keep the "alt.*" stuff for any longer than 3 days. There's no need to repost anyway. Just mail the request to the person and he/she will redistribute it to all those who send him/her "if you get the ..., please forward a copy" messages. That's all! cak Geekium Rex
>I just checked and most of the early ones are gone. With so much news out >there, most sites these days won't keep the "alt.*" stuff for any longer than >3 days. WOW!!! If that is the case then Im really happy...My reader can go all the way back and read all 500 of them...or those that havnt been deleted by the poster. Im impressed....First thing U.S.C computer services has done right, or worth praising. -Tyler
