Navy Federal Credit Union, navyfcu.org Click on rates and compare to NETB@NK. Also, It has been a long time since there were soldiers that were paid a pittance. There are a ton of pilots and other officers that make very good money these days. BT

VALUESPEC, you did not post my full quote, and then argued against the out of context piece. Merely having B&M is not a fatal handicap in and of itself. Then you point out the current income of 'net denizens. But you forget that there is only so far the 'net can go without becoming ubiquitous in American society. This will mean all but the lowest incomes will have to be included, at which point 'netizens average income will only be negligibly above average. The only reason why today's average 'net income is higher is because until recently computers were too expensive for common folks. Now we have $399 e-machines, and you can even get them 'free' by signing up for 3 years with the right ISP. So that statistic is really meaningless IMO. BTW, my income is none of your business, and irrelevant to anything involved in the conversation. Barb
