Well, that was relatively easy. Negative : You must fill out the form with your whole adress - no street name and number required, though.

Negative : You must klick on "no thanks" if you don't want to be come a subscriber of file planet (subscribing includes a fee, like with newspapers). I can wait, also I don't lkike online paying, so I skipped this and used the "normal" registration.

Positive - the process is relatively fast.



A lot stuff to read ... yes, I take these things seriously.

Three passages that interested me most :
