Won,=20
I will keep it short to avoid annoing friends with=20
polemic messages.
It's just a question of "fairness", you might be rite
in what you wrote in your original message but allow me to express my doubts
,as you expressed in your message, about your name
"Steady Won" and your e-mail address [email protected]
To be honest anybody could open an account with a "dummy"
name, and hide behind that name to feel free to write messages he fears
to send with his own REAL name !!!!

Please allow me to doubt about it ...as well as you doubt about
the transatlantic contact.
