Not *we*. You. You felt somewhat like that. And you badly need to start
a revolt. Most probably your name was not even mentioned in the book.
But that is not a reason to stop a Holy War. Pretty much like the aholes
going against selling of contraceptives because *I will never use it*.

Oh. You're a prophet too? Not just a concerned user?

Hopefully there won't be many people biting into this bait to buy a two
bit book *to see for myself*.

That contradicts the above statements.

I remember some posts in the last say seven years coming up with the
same numbers. Just repeating it does not make it right.

And what's the fuss with porn? Are you afraid Jesus, Mohammed or
whomever will punish your eternal soul for sharing a network with people
who watch porn?

Oh! A judge too. Quite a lot of qualifications for someone who cares so
much about porn!

No Paul, if Paul is your name, because the mail list owner can not tell
in advance that you think like that and deny subscription. And even if
the admin could be a prophet like yourself, what is the point? You can
always go some place else and start TheSkyIsFalling-l

Cheers!
