Jim,

Right on!  It's really not whether cookies are good or bad.  I choose
to not have them.  I guess S&T can choose not to allow me to view
their site.  The difference is I'm not a business hoping to sell
something to someone who just might be interested in what I have on my
web site.

You gotta wonder what S&T is thinking?  What company would
intentionally turn away interested, potential customers?  Hey, they
can do what they want...

| Hi Dale,

found 50

site.  IMO

they

cookies

|
| Just my paranoid two cents.
