But I don't know why anyone bothers to go to the FTL rooms anyway. They've been infiltrated for years. And it's impossible to carry on a dialogue or present any info anyway, as the goons are always "hollering" and making a fuss.

If you really want to put some information on AOL, put it on the message boards instead. Those are crazy too, but at least your message will stay in one spot and not scroll off in ten seconds.

3. You really need to dump AOL.
They cost too much to begin with.

7. and...
I needed an exorcist to get them off my computer when I did dump them. Seriously, their programming is so invasive that you will spend months finding and deleting stuff.

9. easier said than done . . .
I dropped AOL months ago, and they keep billing my credit card . . . I finally called my credit card company and cancelled the account, had them open a new one, and transferred my balance . . . if that doesn't stop them, I don't know what will . . .

6. If you don't know how to make a bot, there is great literature
all over the web.

You can have the bot reply to key words and basically flood out their red-ass discussion, claiming the channel and making it liberal again.

They can't fight robot rhetoric.

8. And WTF is Julia Roberts doing plugging AOL?????
I knew it was her voice before it was even officially reported.

She has never taken a political stand that I know of, but for someone who lives in Taos, New Mexico, she should know better.

10. I'm sure Julia Roberts is
a Democrat, I believe that she campaigned for Gore in 2000 and for Kerry.
