Actually, I didn't *work* anyone. I was thinking that if they got some 
feedback from someone outside their demographics (AOL users and 
Corporations) they might rethink their sales strategy and provide a more 
functional version splitting the difference between the two prices. $30 
is still steep but preferable to $40 and I really do want to have some 
kind of advanced warning if I should have another drive go bad on me. 
Now I can put as many drives as I want in my box and have email 
notification too! Why don't you download the trial version for yourself 
and see what you think. @:)

Their children will simply grow up ignorant then won't they !  If Darwin

did flowers come from ?  How come there are still single cell organisms 
after all these milions of years ?  Darwinism doesn't prove anything, 
all it does it suggest a possible solution to the questions man has been

All these questions simply show that you haven't thought Darwinism through 
completely.  The idea that Darwinism requires continuous improvement 
based on what mankind thinks is better shows a total lack of 
understanding of his theory.  Put simply:  Lifeforms evolve to take 
advantage of niches where there is less competition for energy.  Since 
there is zero value in dogs getting smarter, they don't.  Since there are 
plenty of niches where being single celled is they best way to harvest 
energy (one could argue that single celled lifeforms are much better at 
harvesting energy than we multi-celled organisims) there are still lots of 
single celled lifeforms (more than any other kind in fact.)


Darwin never said that evolution was working towards creating a bunch of 
intelligent, car driving, tv-watching, multi-cellular (both biologically 
and telephonically) creatures.  In fact, it is reasonable to see 
intelligence as a dead end branch of the evolutionary bush, much like size

Just some food for thought:

It is possible for someone to hijack a website site with false information
e.g. sex.com.

A worker at the registering site would try to reach the legitimate owner to
verify the information.

If the phone/contact address is false, he/she may be unable to reach the

That's true, but how likely is that?  And since by putting the email link 
in the html, they guarantee that email address will be flooded with spam, 
the chance of your message getting deleted or blocked goes up.  The best 
system would be a form that sends you a copy of your form data.  Several

I think the JPG solution is to DISPLAY the email, and yes that works but 
also requires the user to read the image  type the email addy by hand.


ANYTHING that looks like email in the source HTML is going to get 
scraped. Breaking it up into chunks/hex/whatever with JS is a great idea 
as long as the bot is not capable of rendering the JS for the cooked 
version or figuring out the pieces.


Server side scripting that does not expose the email at all to the 
client is the only way to prevent scraping IMO.

Perhaps, the Universe *is* an intelligently designed construct or 
mechanism! But in the same token, it was clearly setup to be 
self-maintaining and evolving. Life isn't the only thing in the cosmos 
to evolve.


Stars also evolve, in that the 1st generation suns (the 1st ones that 
formed after the Big Bang) were pure hydrogen that produce helium waste 
during the process of fusion. When a 1st generation star goes nova, the 
resulting heat and pressure create higher elements on the periodic table 
that can't be produced in any other manner. Eventually this material 
will coalesce forming new suns that periodically go nova and create even 
higher elements on the periodic table. The latest research states that 
Iron is probably the highest element that will fuse as fuel for solar 
activity.


The Universe is ~18 billion years old and therefore the matter that you 
and I are made of is from star material that has been through this 
crucible of fire multiple times. That's evolution plain and simple! 
Darwin didn't dream up his theory he observed it as a natural fact! It's 
as plain as the nose on my face!

  FORM action=http://www.wavijo.com/cgi/somescript.cgi; method=post

  but people that have sites that don't support scripting such as 
GeoCities have no choice other than to get another webhosting service.

As you probably know any Input can equal Hidden, Text, Password, 
Checkbox, Radio, Submit, Reset, File or Image such as

INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=recipient VALUE=[EMAIL PROTECTED]
INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=subject VALUE=Feedback on your HTML Reference

I'm not arguing that forms used with scripting aren't secure or not 
but rather just pointing out that the simplest form action like I 
have at the top should be avoided at all costs as it's no better than 
using mailto: elsewhere in the html. Here is a website devoted to 
revealing the problems with using action=mailto:;

Re: [H] OT - Intelligent Design dealt harsh blow by NJ Judge

Allow me to interject a little intelligence into this line of thought. 
I've read the Bible and thought about what it states rather than just 
accept a preacher man's interpretation. Since God is all-powerful, 
all-seeing, all-knowing and designed us he is fully aware of who/what we 
are and what any of us will do in any given situation!


God placed the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil (apples you know) in 
the garden and then made sure that Adam and Eve knew about it. He knew 
that Satan would go to the garden and tempt Eve. He knew that Satan 
could charm the chrome off a steel bumper and that Eve would easily 
succumb. He knew that Eve could talk Adam into anything simply because 
the little head is more powerful than the big head. Clear so far?


So Eve was first to eat the Apple but Adam got blamed for original sin 
and finally when God kicked them both out of the Garden of Eden he 
placed 2 flaming swords around the Tree of Life (a different tree than 
the one mentioned above) so nobody could sneak back and eat the fruit to 
become immortal (not that they didn't live 8 or 9 hundred years @ the time).


But wait, this sounds like a fairy tale and not be the work of an 
intelligence so far above our own that it could create something as vast 
and complex as the entire Universe! Seems pretty clear to me no god I 
can believe in could act like a simpleton the way Genesis portrays 
him/her/it (since God came from outside this Universe and clearly can't 
be human why did he tell his prophets that he's male? God doesn't lie 
does he?).


Finally, I would like to say to all my Christian brothers and sisters 
that lest you say the Bible was written by his prophets who are fallible 
men I say that God is smart and powerful enough to straighten it out so 
we read it the way he intended! Surely an all-powerful God would not 
allow a corrupted version of his word to pollute the minds of all 
mankind the past several millenia? Read it and see for yourself if you 
think it represents the works of an ultimate being. To me it's more 
along the lines of a twelve year olds idea of the supreme being! @:D

I'd pass on worshipping that sort of diety.



Read the story of Adam and Eve in the garden.
It's called having free will, and making the wrong choice.

And the Human Race has had scientific reason for how long now? Imagine 
what they will figure out in the next 2000 years.


The apostle Paul (the former Saul of Tarsus) said that the end is near 
referring to the second coming of Jesus and I haven't been raptured 
yet. He didn't lie to us did he? That's what it says! @:D

The real answer is somewhere in the middle.  It is like a well kept 
secret

like the formula for Coke.
If we could scientifically prove the origin of human beings, then most
religions (believing in the unseen) would
not be necessary.



So far, scientists have been unable to duplicate the event that 
supposedly caused the first living organism on earth to come into being. 
Real science is provable with experiments that are

readily reproducable.
