A belated answer: I'm on dialup at home and it's damn near impossible to logon when there's a high wind, and in this remote part of the west coast of Eire, we're not getting broadband - even though I have it at work, which is, as the crow flies, just over two miles in distance. Go figure.

As for McCain, no, this is not personal. I simply dislike the man, as I dislike Blair, for instance, and Brown for not doing anything to stop Blair making a fool of himself and his party in the Iraq debacle. My true fear however, is that Obama won't be elected in November, and the world ends up with this serial liar (the truth about his imprisonment in Vietnam is/will slowly come out). I suppose Clinton will pick up the pieces in 2012.
