This is all FUD and a red herring. All is true, web interface or not. Web has nothing to do with it. It's true now (with the non-web application, let alone Android - demonstrating that we're already there that you're warning against). If it's on a computer, it's at risk. Deal. If our heinies are already hanging out, and they are, let's at least conveniently hang ourselves out to dry, with a java version. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
