None of my friends or relatives want an invite. They’re happy with their own email accounts. I’ve given out two, and still have five left. If anyone wants one, just email me. ---

I’ve got four, should anyone else want more of them. They are really nifty. ---

Now, why in the hell did I post in IMHO? I meant to put this in MPSIMS. I gave one away. Still four more left. ---

I have a friend who wants one (I’d invite him, but I don’t seem to get invites any more). Rather than give his e-mail out, if you send one to me (I don’t know if you can send an invite to a gmail account) at Lsura73\_at\_yahoo.com I’ll forward it over to him. ---

D’oh. I just realized that you said to e-mail you. So, e-mail sent. (or it will be in a minute) ---

**gfloyd** , am I nuts, or did you change your listed email address in the last two hours or so? I tried to email you earlier but it bounced back to me. I got an invite from **alphaFemale** (thank you kindly), though, so I’m just wondering. ---
