Yeah, I used the Google portal up until recently, and caught flack
here and elsewhere. I use it now as a back up, or when I am online
away from my desktop. Melissa R. put me onto the News Services. I came
to realize that all I need for ISP is Internet Access. I do not need
the push content of the big ISP like AOL or others.

The fact that AOL is actually a successful business shows just how
screwed
up the world really is.

Was it Barnum who said "Show me a Fool, and I will show you a way to
separate him from his money!" or something along that line OvO

As an AOL customer (and now an MSN customer?!?!?!) you would know! vOv

Nope, you must have me comfused with someone else, I never had AOL,
and MSN gets pushed on us by Qwest DSL. All they provide now is
Internet portal, 24/7 support for DSL, and 10 pop3 accts. There are
other DSL providers, but they just rebundle Qwest DSL, since there is
just the one network. I have been considering Comcast that provides
higher speed, but more expensive, and I can only type so fast,KKKnnnn

I thought this indicated that there was a time that you did use AOL, and
then decided not to anymore.

You also said:

"MSN gives me 10 pop3 accounts"

Which fooled me into thinking you were using MSN.
