Bill, Tut, tut, scury..scury.... Ahem..Ahem, are you talking about my project again? I have bad NEWS on the "Cairo" front. I admit it, ..it's my fault. After all, I came up with the PYRAMID SCHEME. The Egyptian PYRIMID downloads from the FBNA web site did hit a an ALL TIME HIGH. But the MICROSOFT Active Historical Monument™ download software seems to require more bandwidth then I originally estimated. The base slabs take forever. In fact, download times are GOING TO THE MOON. Maybe the whole concept of downloading actual Egyptian PYRAMIDS and the advertising SCHEME, "Egyptian Natural Wonders" as well as the trademark "WEBSITE OF THE FARROWS", should be rethought. But then again, look at FBNA.com's current market valuation. Is there a better way to measure success then a STOCK's current MARKET valuation??? BTW, when posting about the FBNA PYRAMID SCHEME, try to keep the words, FRAUD, MICROSOFT, PYRAMID and SCHEME out of the post. I still think it's feasible to provide downloads of the seven wonders of the world. The team's spirits are at an ALL TIME HIGH, but a few of the less professional archaeologist, who spent more then a month downloading their favorite PYRAMID using T1 lines are miffed that some of the DLL's are missing. The word FRAUD is being thrown around. They're not BUYing into the excuse about MICROSOFT working on a patch. They say, I've turned the OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFETIME into a nightmare, causing a SCrAMble for more bandwidth. I haven't the heart to explain that the patch needed to turn their acres of rubble into PYRAMIDS again, is four time larger then the original PYRAMID SCHEME. The size of the patch seem to ONLY GO UP. Maybe I'll give them a call next week, and provide a little INSIDER INFORMATION with regard to the problem, if I get a chance. The GOOD NEWS is, I've not heard a single complaint from the more professional archaeologists downloading pyramids at 28.8. Then again, that might be NEXT BIG THING we have to DEAL with, next year's problem. ***$$$$$$$$$$$**** Tom
