> [@CaveMike](#): > > Say it ain’t so! I was trying to find online nutrional info for Chipotle. Any chance you have a link? [Sorry, Bub!](http://www.freestartster.com/chipotle/) Prepare to be shocked. The tortilla alone has 9 grams of fat and 340 Calories. :eek: :smack: You can see why they don’t print this stuff on their website or on their menus! ---

Well, if there are any left, I’ll take one: I can be reached via my profile or by nightsong9 (at) [hotmail.com](http://hotmail.com) (please make sure the subject is clear so if my spam catches it I can fish it back out). Thanks! ---

If anyone else happens to have an extra my e-mail is [cs302b@yahoo.com](mailto:cs302b@yahoo.com) I think it’d be cool to check out gmail early. Thanks ---

_Yay_ I have 6 more invites this morning. If you would like to be invited please put my name in bold along with your e-mail address in your request (this is so you don’t accidentally get invited twice). Next six get it! ---

> [@MannyL](#): > > Anyone having a problem accessing gmail with Mozilla? I get in fine using the AOL browser but Mozilla and IE just time out I had a difficult time accesing it from IE6 - it was trying to tell me that I needed to let Javascript leave cookies even when I tried it with security settings on the lowest setting. I found that the link to gmail as provided by a google search for gmail was the culprit. I don’t know if this will solve your problem or not, but my solution was to use this url [Gmail](https://gmail.google.com/gmail) ---
