So if you >want people to take time for you, you should take time for them. ever thought of people who don't have a newsreader to read news offline.. they have to write it online... i know many people just using deja (now google) to handle their news web-based... and they pay for every minute they are logged in... and if you want to answer many posts and still throw out an ascii art request... you rather use "l8tz" than "later" or even "hope to see you all later! good bye"
