Today marks the second time that an e-mail that relates to high-yield
new energy resources, which is only an armchair interest, has been
moved where I couldn't get at it. As far as coincidences go, this is
either proof of a mental universe, in which case I expect to be able
to walk on water soon and not have so much crap in my immediate
vicinity, or some sort of screw-up with Netzero/Juno/United Online,
where they add some g-dforsaken filter that makes the onerous work of
trying to clean-up this mockery of a society where a one billion
dollar DVD college curriculum for the world is impossible (California
spends 50 B annually, and no DVD's), or yet another fly-off-the-handle
moment, which are my privilege, given the BS about education, energy,
etc.

It's completely possible that since I take this stuff seriously --
after all, everything from desalinating the ocean to living in low
orbit could benefit from a little free energy -- that I'm
over-reacting to the way it shuffles my e-mail when I refer to the
same interesting one more than twice. It's not like Juno (I'm using
Juno 5) has a way of reading only my "Read" mail or automatically
moving it all to a safe folder.

So, uncover "the conspiracy" and get a tip.

Or, if you can't uncover the conspiracy, get me a list of some
high-paying free energy contests/grants like watercarone.com.

An extra tip if you can recommend a competitive email service that
provides for my dumping all of my email in text format and not some
proprietary thing that doesn't work. Google "gmail" sounds nifty, but
not if I can't do a jiffy back-up, and I don't know if that's a
feature yet.

Clarification of Question by scotttygett-ga on 08 Mar 2005 01:18 PST

The last time a question I asked was locked for a day, and it was a
pretty lame literary question, no one answered it. It looks like the
old DVD FF attention span applies to Googling...

I will probably cancel this question soon and do the ISP shopping
another time and stick with the energy question.

Once upon a time I made one of those info pages myself, and there used
to be sites like Milken's, though the Energy Foundation didn't really
seem to be all that involved in energy research the last time I
looked...
