Tom, the guys in the lab long ago developed a neat internet search engine, called Snoopy (ummm... after the dog, of course). When you hit the FBN search engine, a little snoopy-type dog runs into his doghouse and comes back out with all sorts of neat suggestions for internet sites which we determine using AI technology acting on personal information we glean from people's hard drives. Well, Norma used it a few times and nixed the whole project. Heck, even the tapes were bulked. So, sad to say, Snoopy went the way of Old Yeller and I to this day don't have a clue why. - Jeff
