oh wow it's gmail



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Thanks for the gmail account.  When it rains it pours.  I now have 2.
Does anybody want one to play with?  Just let me know.  I encrypted,
tarred and use it to store documents.  :)  (The adds on the side are all
about pgp stuff.)

Speaking of that, other than making it easy for the search engines to
search your page (or not) are search optimization techniques of any use
other than separation of money from wallet?  The couple articles I've
seen didn't give much useful info.  What do you think?
