The item below is probably a tag or advertisement that the provider stuck on the bottom of emails sent by it's members. Or it could be an automatic signature someone has entered so that it will appear on all the emails sent by that individual, Here is the offensive item! 3,987 AMERICANS HAVE DIED and at least 29,324 WOUNDED in the Iraq war. >> COST OF THE WAR: $12 BILLION a month, most of it added to a national debt >> that now exceeds $30,000 per household. I forwarded the email by Cynthia to myself to see if my provider added anything to my emails. Here is what it added: " It's Tax Time! _Get tips, forms and advice on AOL Money & Finance._ (http://money.aol.com/tax?NCID=aolprf00030000000001) " I don't suppose it is very offensive but I do not really appreciate AOL sticking it's ads in my emails. I usually don't pay any attention to these trailers but maybe we should be more assertive in complaining to the providers about them being added. I will let AOL know about my disapproval of this practice. David Reinhardt 9976 Fairway Villas Lane Pensacola, Florida 32514-2603 Phone 850-474-0407 Fax 850-637-1843 **************It's Tax Time!
