Alas, I have about 2 dozen worms in my basement at home. Granted, they're in the fridge, waiting for my next fishing trip, but night crawlers are a form of worm.

9 comps, and no worms either...
It's a mix of Drake 9.1's, Win 2K's, Win XP's, and one Win 98.
BTW, don't even think about emailing me or trying to get my IP to send me a nice 'package'. I'll zap you before you can say, "There's no place like 127.0.0.1"
