Thank you for the suggestion that I pay to become a member of
a group which has 'interests in providing Internet education.' Am I
to take it that Internet education is not something that can be
addressed in open fora, but must come to the masses from on
high? That IFWP, for example, does not have such an interest?
(By the way, what *is the reason for this group?)
Is it so odd to suggest that education in the very broadest sense
is -- in the absence of any other objective -- not a bad interest for a
group to have? What Every User Should Know... hey, even some
few Board members might learn a thing or two.

Now I understand! Something can always be done: go somewhere
else. (There are, of course, no technical people here!)

What did you give up? What were you hoping to accomplish?
