'Male bovine excrement' applies. U.S. Copyright Office registration is an absolute minimum of $25-30, and can run over $100.

And many facilities, such as banks, will perform the service for _NO_COST_ for their customers. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
