Having suggested it, I have to admit that Joe REALLY hit the nail on the head with the problem--that being---it's only marginally less annoying to call up a thread with no new information on it. It still takes just as long to load (sometimes longer if it's a long'un).

I am working on a "Shock-O-Matic"tm which will use the technology that is already available through the internet (or so I've been told by "certain people" who have told me that "they" can watch me through my computer monitor). The "Shock-O-Matic"tm will be able to deliver 220-221 Volts-whatever it takes (thank you Michael Keeton/Mr. Mom)of electicity through a flamer's keypad.

I may also use it on people I just don't like.

I haven't decided yet.
