   used to be in the 1990's, better id advertising is a problem put them   
   allllllll across the bottom of each screen. I understand that advertising   
   could be a bit of an embarrassment    
   when so many years have been devoted to free speech ie Google Groups, but what   
   am I and people like me to do !

   This dataset is........What I want to say is, its becoming v. difficult to   
   post online, so I think theres a worm in there, all I get is a 'Are you a   
   robot' on my screen & I have to delete what I've posted. Shit.
