Jesus christ on a pogo stick Andrew.

I really, really wish that you would get the facts first before you
distorted them.

AOL has over 8 MILLION users ALONE! That is just ONE online service
provider. Not in comparison to the other biggies, like Prodigy, Compuserv
and MSN. And then if you figure in Internet Service Providers (there is a
difference), the numbers grow even more significantly.

According to -your- figures, 15% would equal to 36 Million ppl having
access, which would give America Online 1/4 of those figures, which again,
is not true.

Its closer to 35% of households now have a computer and are connected online.

Again, get the facts first before you distort them.
