A Cookie is a way the a website ( like this one ) can put some information on your system . The information is placed with the file for you browser. the Information that we would place is just you handle and you E-mail address that way when you go to post a message it would not have to ask you to type that stuff. We could also put a messages about access levels IF WE START USING THEM . When you get to the site the site would ask your system for the cookie if it finds one then you are never asked. If not you can ask to have one placed (some times you can delete it by mistake and need a replacement) so we can keep up with that information for you, are we could always ask you for the information when we need it. Cookies are fine as long as you know from where and from who you get them.
