ha ha ha ha yesterday some one posted and said the reason he came was to get away from the g-mail thing.now we are inundated withe dam things if any one was at c.f.h.we got warned about a g-mail scam. so i avoided it i forgot about it until now.now we are going to have a g-mail forum or are we marty
