The way to search on yahoo (and get decent results) is to look for +marlin +jones -piclist which would give pages with bothe the words marlin AND jones in it , in contrast with -piclist which would not give the pages that had piclist on it On AltaVista advanced text search it is even more fun to search you can do (marlin near jones) and not piclist which would give all pages where "marlin" is no more than a few words separated from "jones" (I think 4) but does not contain "piclist" Peter van Hoof ------------- RemoveMEpvhTakeThisOuTvertonet.com http://go.to/pvh > {Original Message removed}

Erik: I did a quick search on both AltaVista and InfoSeek using "Marlin P. Jones", exactly as you typed ... and they both led me to http://www.mpja.com/ Give a hungry man a fish and he'll learn to beg. Teach him how to fish and he'll no longer go hungry ... or some such thing.
