Ideally there should be an empty line after 'website.' and then the ===
isn't really needed before 'Dunno' because it will be clear anyway.

The way I usually post the link is because the weblink 'builder' sez:

To link to this page use spamlinks.net/spamlinks.htm with the link
http://spamlinks.net/spamlinks.htm attached but depending on how you get
there, you may go to geocities
http://www.geocities.com/spamresources/spamlinks.htm or
http://spamlinks.port5.com/spamlinks.htm

Don't forget to make that empty line, it only uses 1 char of bw ;-)

I provided the link, yes.  The only real relevance is that I would
encourage you to surf more securely so that a site like the geocities
one won't cause you trouble.  Oh, yeah, don't forget about the empty
line ;-)

You can never really predict when a dialogue will develop.  I always
'assume' it will.

I think it's a very good page.  See the alternate links above.

I'm having a beer myself, but I don't have any bbq.  Wish I did.
