Hi again Laura,

Thanks for your comments.

Romania is .ro. I'm in Moscow, Russia. Well, this antispam craze really
ticks me off. It's as bad, if not worse, than spam itself. At least, this
blocking business is a real pain. I had a Yahoo address once, but I haven't
used it for years. And because I'm on several mailing lists, I wouldn't like
to change this address, since that would mean quite a bit of resubscribing.

Best regards from snowy Moscow,

Denis
