Knowing this fact, is the reason my Signature File has no Phone Number and No address, besides Ontario and Canada. You have to decide if you want your Signature File to show to prospective customers, and have Phone queries from someone that read your post, through Google, and wants you to expand your answer to him. I have been reasonably lucky, so I don't care where it goes. I am sure we all have a Reference to ourselves on the Net somewhere. So TechAssist is no more of a Priority for Search Engines such as Google. Cost of doing business, I guess. -Ed- Tel-Tek Electronics teltek3@xxxxxxxxxxxx Ontario-Canada -----Original Message----- From: techassist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:techassist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Doug Keller Sent: Tuesday, July 06, 2004 3:35 PM To: techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [TechAssist] Re: WinStips Well, until one of us hits the powerball jackpot and can buy our own T1 line and new server, we just have to grin and bear it. -- Doug Keller Wis-Kel Electronics 101 Freeland Ave. Terra Alta, WV USA 26764 dek@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx dek@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.tech-assist.org "Learn from the mistakes of others, because you won't live long enough to make them all yourself" Phil Bader wrote: > Doug, I think I know where he is going with this: > Google searches do reveal our emails within our private forum. > This seems discomforting to some.
