Using yahoo mail is its own punishment, but the koolaid drinkers think its 
normal.  My next door neighbor uses it on a vista box.  I sat down to try & 
read some sense into a message she got from her online school course, 2 line 
message with 4k of propaganda surround it.  I'm an old Iowa farm product, and 
we put that stuff on the fields to grow better crops next year.

I've set her up to do her own sucking and sending a couple of times, but she 
is so used to yahoo she hasn't run my setup enough to appreciate the 
difference.  Scared of it I think.  Sad too.  The girl is smarter than that 
or I wouldn't have hired her 7 years ago when I needed an operator at the tv 
transmitter.

Sigh, there is little hope it seems.
