Cupertino, CA. Lines: 16 I have to agree with the people who think that the stats are useless. I am sure that some people (usually those that make the list) would be interested in them, but most of us really don't care. It might even make a user or site up their volume just to see if they could make the list (so much for junk mail). If you want to generate that stuff, great! If you want to distribute it, wonderful! Just don't distribute it on news. Why not ask everyone who wants a copy to please send you their address and mail it to them? Better yet, pass around all of those neat sources and let those people who care generate the statistics locally so that they relate to something like their reality? -- >From the dungeons of the Warlock: Chuck Von Rospach ucbvax!amd70!packet!cfv (chuqui@mit-mc) <- obsolete!
