Re: Trevor Perry watching over Joe Pluta!

Rob,

Sorry about the link.  David captured it as properly encoded as a URL here:
http://www.valadd.com/images/Trevor%20watching%20over%20Joe.jpg

Since the banners are transient and can't be "predicted" I took a 
snapshot of it before it scrolled to a new subject so the image posted 
isn't functional, it's just the jpeg of the scary image I saw...

The actual "read the comments" (if it *was* functional) was Trevor's 
comments about what the banner was advertising, NOT anything about what 
Joe's article was about.  Although I am sure if given the chance, Trevor 
could invent some comments...[ducking and running for cover...]
