Posted by Ezra [Tuesday, July 3, 2001] [03:40 p.m.] Do you think this will ever make the Oxford English Dictionary? term: cut To remove an object from a document and place it in a buffer. In word processing, for example, cut means to move a section of text from a document to a temporary buffer. This is one way to delete text. However, because the text is transferred to a buffer, it is not lost forever. You can copy the buffer somewhere else in the document or in another document, which is called pasting. To move a section of text from one place to another, therefore, you need to first cut it and then paste it. This is often called cut-and- paste.From WeboPedia Posted by Ezra [Tuesday, July 3, 2001] [10:29 a.m.] A quote for you: "There's a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot." - Steven Wright Posted by Ezra [Monday, July 2, 2001] [02:38 p.m.] Really like the layout of Spasticity Posted by Ezra [Friday, June 29, 2001] [05:10 p.m.] Here are those pics I promised.

Why should it be of any suprise that Passport will be the authenticator for XP instant messenging?
