But.. but ... but John... I'M USING Microsoft's hot new "Can 'n String 99" software. As an alpha tester of that product, Microsoft downloads to me a can of Treesweet concentrated orange juice every week along with a ball of string.. I must admit, I'm doing a great job of drinking specific amounts of the OJ each day to help find the EXACT amount that must be left in the can to act as a data transmitter. Gee... I wonder when Microsoft'll start the second phase of this test by sending us cans of APPLE JUICE... <giggle> Barb Mallut [log in to unmask] ---------- From: Parkinson's Information Exchange on behalf of John Morey Sent: Wednesday, January 21, 1998 10:26 AM To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN Subject: Re: Barb's (THE BILL'S Barb) response to snake oil hucksters >... that not all is exactly as it's presented to us here on the Internet/Web when >it comes to a slick huckster or a salesperson pitching for a multi-level marketing Very well said, and a thoughtful response. The price all NET users pay for the access to unfiltered information and raw data is continued vigilance and a good dose of skepticism. Those from Missouri are especially blessed when dealing with (dare I say it? - I dare, I dare!), the multilevel-marketing, snake-oil-selling, hucksters who prey on people who desperately want an answer. >GAWD it's good to be back online!

I know of a store where you can get something much more reliable that doesn't break down. This store carries lots of tin cans and some very, very, very, long string! Peace, John
