	Typically I have found that CR4 has allowed for many contingencies. What if all our computers break? What if we had to go back to the back-up, snail mail? Should we all keep the Globalspec address in Troy New York on the wall? __________________ You don't get wise because you got old, you get old because you were wise.

	are you serious? if all the world's computers breakdown, that can only mean one thing - doomsday. at that day, will you still care if somebody replied to your post? but if you really want to know CR4's snail mail addy, please scroll down at the bottom of this page. you'll find it there. you can also do a Whois query and you'll find the administrator's name and address. __________________ Sign at Shoe Repair Shop: I WILL HEEL YOU.

	Forget the snail-mail, it'll be too busy. Invest in pigeons, then work out where the mailing centre is. Kris

	Yes, it is April Fools. Question was prompted by report of threatening computer virus worm, assault. April Fools has long been the Transcendian National Holiday. __________________ You don't get wise because you got old, you get old because you were wise.
