IJMC The Pun Heard 'Round the World

                   IJMC - The Pun Heard 'Round the World

Who knows what happenned last night, I don't. Lots of little equal signs 
and numbers appeared all over the post. Here's hoping it doesn't happen 
again...and if it does, we're leaving the service provider sooner than 
they think.                                                        -dave
