Paul,

With todays diarrhea of messages I cannot find the time to wade 
through all the text of messages.  I blow out the "Nigerian" emails 
telling me that some "Agency" has found that I am owed gobs of cash 
but worry that I may blow away legitimate messages for I do do some 
stuff in offshore counties. Some blasters of messages think people 
have nothing better to do than read all their stuff.  How am I 
expected to know that the MG will not be available in North America - 
which one would think would be a prime market !!  Using common sense 
and a knowledge of the world of www and emails, it would seem prudent 
of the MG whiz kids to put a prominent notice which said "Available 
in the UK only".
