messaging[edit]
the only way to send a message that is totally private is to click the "E-mail this user" link in the toolbox on the left of your screen. if you don't mind it being visible to the whole world, you can write on someone's user talk page, like i'm doing right now. this will be visible to anyone on wikipedia, though. you can message a particular IP address by writing on that IP's talk page. this is not private, however. hope this answers your question. see you around, --Alhutch 23:52, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Zanger Bob[edit]
Nah, I don't really plan to bring back the Zanger Bob article. do what you want with it, but I don't spend that much time on here anymore, so I probably won't be doing anything with it. --Alhutch 20:11, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
