Dude, that thread is 8 years old. It was dead and buried until you dug it out of its grave. Why?

Yeah I got the blurb too. There's quite a bit of malarkey in it (the list). Jenn

I just got this in my email. Never heard of this organization before: http://www.saia-online.eu/ The email came from Christiane Schmidt (also not familiar with this name). Anybody know more on this? Sounds like the EU version of MAC (??) Jenn
