Hi PEET! I"m here out of respect for Rod's homepage, also the need to fine an APPLE lounge. I share Rod's respect for the Indigenous dwellers 60,000 yr+ occupancy of AUS. But I'm an APPLE nut also.

hobbit Posted Aug 3, 2002
I'm an agnostic too, PEET. I don't want to believe in it all, BUT why can't I get into my garage(tooo many macs) & why has the stockmarket gone down? 
Thers may be a plan. But who's.
