This is really cool

That was a cool story. Looks like I will never be sending anything COD.
Build a man a fire, and he will be warm for a day
Light a man on fire, and he will be warm for the rest of his life!Not in the US, no. COD in Australia is bulletproof - you pay the post office cash when you pick up the item and the post office sends a money order, which they write, to the sender. There is no way, even if you stole some money orders, that you could fraud the system. Christian No offense, but I don't really want to encourage the creation of another VB developer. - Larry Antram 22 Oct 2002

Again, you can screw up a C/C++ program just as easily as a VB program. OK, maybe not as easily, but it's certainly doable. - Jamie Nordmeyer - 15-Nov-2002 -

Which was good. In this case. Now where can I find this "email" thing he talks of? I'm a Dell user and I'd like to set him straight! :~

I didn't get the impression that was a problem, what with people chasing the movie rights, etc. Christian No offense, but I don't really want to encourage the creation of another VB developer. - Larry Antram 22 Oct 2002

Yeah, that seemed a bit unusual to me. I bet he didn't want to admit he needed the extra money for drugs :-) Christian No offense, but I don't really want to encourage the creation of another VB developer. - Larry Antram 22 Oct 2002
