My point was simply that it's a free speech forum. ;-)
Nobody is obligated to post URL's.

I personally do try to do it tho' just because I've been on usenet long
enough now, I know how beneficial it can be. <G> And I do, on occasion,
find out when googling that I was wrong so save face.

But, I have the luxury of being on cable access so doin a quick google
in the middle of posting is no big deal.
