We can't have the many conveniences of technology without the inherent dangers of its insidious misuse.<BR/><BR/>Roofoo, you make a good point, and Anonymous - ARE YOU KIDDING ME? The 3 little pigs?

I've not seen the house where my daughter is now living, so yesterday I tried to look, but Google wanted me to pay to download Google Earth, so I didn't. But I'm sure a criminal would have no qualms about paying if it would help them scope out locations.Helen Gingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09794759602654727110noreply@blogger.com
