Best I can say is this...from my last reply.  And this is the last I'll
say.  I can see my opinion is far from popular.

If they were selling Anthrax, I wouldn't have said a word.  _THAT_ is

Freaking handbags!!!

Now if the hosting site is hosting (as in advertising, come here to host

this as sheer laziness and quite frankly it's rather pathetic.  Passing
the buck isn't okay.  We count on the schools to raise our kids and the
ISP to police the interwebs.  Bullshit!


Have you ever heard of criminal negligence?

I suppose you think that's bullshit, too?
