How slow is your 'Net connection? Less than 9.6 Kbps? Recall, this was the best speed one could get in the late 80s and early 90s, email transport was via UUCP (dialup/hop); one had to wait till the next day for responses. Yet young Linus Torvalds and lesser mortals got "cutting edge" work of their time done. Search engines like AltaVista came much later. -- Arun Khan _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
