No one said you had to use AOL. If they had a monopoly then everyone would
have to use it. I see in one of your other posts that you live in America.
No one made you come here, and no one is making you stay here. People like
you are more than welcome to leave. In fact most of us would encourage it.
There are lots of people that would be happy to take your place here, so
good riddance. BTW, why exactly did you end up here in the first place?

He sure hasn't lived in Europe.
Driving in the US is childs play compared to the Netherlands and
most other parts of Europe. Spain is fairly easy as it has long and
quiet roads like the US interstates. Madrid is suicide.
Paris is a *cough* experience. Driving there will teach you to to
floor it while braking too and steering to get into that almost big
enough place on the next lane.
Belgium will show you that passing at speeds over 120mph is 'the right
thing' if you want to overhaul 3 cars so you can leave the exitramp first.
In Portugal people drive as fast as they can. So new cars do 120 while old
cars do 40. That's no problem there.
In Germany if you don't drive a Merc, Porsche of big BMW You Will
Let Them Pass.
And in my own country... well... driving through NY was relaxing for
me.
