They are merely not going to have subscriptions any longer. HTH clarify just a little. -AnnUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01074570792314083096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37267136.post-76160975260482851552007-07-18T17:12:00.000-04:002007-07-18T17:12:00.000-04:00OK, we have one opinion as to why it wasn't liked ...OK, we have one opinion as to why it wasn't liked ...
