I would call that a "bad". (b) Me, I'd prefer donating to cancer research (I think there's one of them out there) or SETI than whatever payments I'd get out of CapCal, assuming they actually do pay and that's not something they say to lure people in.

Post #6,155 by bepatient 8/21/01 5:42:20 PM Reply	Actually... I might try it as an experiment...see what happens. As I read through the site I noticed the same line you did...which means SETI and this are not mutually exclusive. I run the cl version of SETI on all my machines...its alot faster and I like other screen savers better. So...I was thinking of setting one machine on its own little network to shield the rest of my machines from it...and then let it go...see if they pay (and track what they do via logs ;) Maybe I'll do a running commentary.

Post #6,392 by Panhandler Joe 8/22/01 10:36:18 PM Reply	Thanks! Heh. Now, as to why - does she need a 'whack' with the clue-by-four, or is it so she can 'whack' others? Both? chuckle I gotta get the email (anonymous and otherwise) version working, too... For those that missed it in Oh, Pun! - here's a version of Imric's [link\|http://cluex4.refers.to/spiel.html\|sales spiel] for the clue-by-four.... (and yes, it's meant to be humorous. For my friends here, for a limited time only, here is the [link\|http://cluex4.refers.to/CLUEX4.html\|Clue-by-Four] for free...) [link\|http://panhandler.refers.to\|Got a Dollar]?
