- I can sympathise with anyone suffering net.problems.
- I would like to hassle our sysadmin about our 6-day net.lag, but
- hassling him over why there is only 200K free space on our netowrk
- , thereby preventing me transferring data files, takes precedence.

- You could always take the brutal way out, and get yourself a new account
- at a public access site, like I did.
-
- BTW - has anyone got *any* idea what Blade was talking about up there??
- (Is this any different to normal)
-
- Hope this helps, Catwoman
