"YOU'VE GOT MAIL"....I just saw the movie... (And Robert, yes it is a real movie..It stars "Sleepless In Seattle"'s Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan and is actually a little like "Sleepless In Cyberspace" as I have seen it said before.)....The movie was good...Starts a little slow then builds to a crescendo as the two internet "friends" meet....Very nice movie...Not a dry eye in the house by the ending scene...Guaranteed!

The familiar "Welcome", "You've Got Mail", and "Goodbye" are heard several times throughout the show....The AOL icon can be seen several times as well when they do computer screen shots of the front of their individual computers......and maybe most of all if anyone out there isn't familiar with the internet they will be more conscious of it after seeing this movie.

All those sub-1000 computers that are going to be sold this Christmas time will have a lot of AOL subscribers as an outcome...This movie will be good for AOL and the industry as a whole.

Regards, George
