Re: E-journals



Mike,

Thanks for the reassurances. They do make me feel better about things. But I do know of a person in the paleontological world who has a history of "cracking" into computer systems and changing things, so I'm still rather untrusting.

You ignore that
risk because you trust

Actually, no. I've never bought anything off of the internet with a credit card and I don't intend to. Anything that I can't reserve and buy with a check, I don't need. Including airline tickets - I had absolutely no problem reserving tickets for SVP with an airline at the internet rate when I called and asked them to match it.


Off topic: the activity described in this message as "hacking" is
actually "cracking".

I find that extremely amusing - the fact that someone doing something illegal wants to be distinguished from a different criminal is hysterical! As I said before, some people have way too much time on their hands.


Thanks for the responses.

Patty
