Yup. Did you notice the last FPA read like a "who's who" from Foxtalk for the last decade? <g>

Our bookkeeper keeps track of all subscriptions and expiration dates, and keeps all of the bogus "reminder" renewal notices through the year. FT has acquired quite a stack and we're paid up through some time in 2007.

Unless FT does something to improve content, though, we'll be cancelling early.
