Rumors about the Georgia woman found sitting atop her radio tuned to the Old Time Gospel Hour, with the bass and volume cranked up, and babbling about the second coming are probably an urban legend.

Completely unfounded rumours.

It was actually Illinois and Nine Inch Nail's "Downard Spiral" CD.

On a more "on-topic" matter, though. I do understand the position of the overseas users. I, personally, sacrifice a lot for my beliefs (I don't spend money at franchises or Wal-Mart, for instance, which is very hard to do as an American), but I don't expect others to do the same.

But I would ask you all this question:

What services/features would a company have to offer for you to use them instead of PayPal, and would you be willing to switch if someone told you about a viable alternative?

The reason I ask is because merchants can try to seek out viable alternatives for their sites for international customers, but if no one's going to use the alternative, no impetus to do so, then what's the point?

I fear for any site in this community that adopts PayPal. It will certainly lead to increased controls on content, and likely increased restrictions on what users can post and possibly say.
