RE: smokes



Is that mental or physical abuse? ;-)  You could try and help me work out
why five boxes have all just simultaneously panic'd saying: Kernel panic
trap level 2.

But seriously good work on the cigarette front.  I have been meaning to do
it for ages myself but havent yet summoned up the willpower.  Of course
think of how much you have saved yourself in cash and then go treat
yourself
to some serious new kit.  Say 10 cigarettes a day is approx 2 quid a day so
2 x 240 = 500 quid.  Now thats a fair number of x10 modules etc ;-)

all the best

Kieran
