Doug: I received mail from SI this morning. Michael Hanson and Jonathan M. Morris have been removed from SI. Also, I was told that they are in fact one in the same person. Tonight when I have sometime, I am going to answer SI Admin (Bob) PM to me and ask that he check into wheather or not it was Bob Monski playing the parts of Michael Hanson and Jonathan M. Morris. Bob was removed from SI last year for the same type of postings. He was also removed from AOL and Prodigy and as I have mentioned before, he sends me harrasing emails all the time. I know Bob monski is reading this, as he still lurks on SI. I also know I will have several emails from him tonight filled with the "F" word and making threats. I beleive the last time he wanted to put his F hands around my F neck and choke the f life out of me. Understand why I dislike people like Michael Hanson and Jonathan M. Morris so much?? Understand why I use the name Instock and not a real name, although anyone with half a brain can figure out my first name. Just wanted to put a smile on your face first thing in the morning! Off to work.......... Scott
