What a bunch of frickin morons, the other phishers should take these guys out back for a beating because their stupidity.

- I've been using my gmail account more, really like it. The threading is very cool, but I can't get used to the notion of saving every piece of email sent to me, it just seems pointless. Here's an update on the privacy stuff that has been flying around on this.
