If I go to Eau Claire and drop a letter in a letter box am I required to put the address of the box on the letter? Am I forging if I put my Elmwood address on it instead? How about if I go into a library in Eau Claire and send an email? Why should I not put my Elmwood address on it? Of what possible use to anyone would the address of the machine I sent it from be? -- John Hasler [EMAIL PROTECTED] (John Hasler) Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI
