Have to register?

Balo, your link was just a registration form for the NY Times.

I guess that's alright if you're a member? :)

I would reproduce the article but there are different segments. I would imagine after registering you are taken to the article. No charge for registering.

No charge for registering.
...but they get your email address. God knows where that goes to. :)

Crockett, I can't remember the last time I got spam. I use a web based Yahoo e-mail address for Online registering. When too much bulk mail come into my Yahoo account I just abandon and create a new one. No one should use their real e-mail addy for anyone but friends and business use. I really can't imagine you not doing this.

No I don't, but I also use this "bogus" account for friends who choose sloppy email practices and don't want to weed through hundreds of other crap. :)
I know you meant well. :)
