	That's ok. I don't think they understand what they're
	posting. From what I can tell, I think they have enough 
	trouble with simple autonomic functions and the resources
	required to check the header would probably stop them
	from breathing. Also, the origins of this suggest that
	the "g" in that last sentence should have been cpaitalized.
