I'm not sure what trans-Atlantic phone calls have to do with internet
access, but suppose for the sake of argument what you say is true.  Does it
make any sense for YOU to post long messages on this topic, and extend the
thread?  I'll cheerfully keep replying, but this would have been over after
a couple of posts if not for the "you can't do that" posts.

I can do it, and I will continue to do it. If helping someone with his Lisa
problem makes me a terrible person, I'll cheerfully be a terrible person.
