I'm sorry that I have to be the bearer of bad news, but in regards to gmail send limits, it is 500 total email recipients, not 2000. I have tested this first hand recently and about 6 months ago and the magic "we're going to stop you for about 24 hours" spot is 500 email recipients.

The 2,000 limit is an example where you might send four e-mails to 500 addresses each, so I don't think your experience is at odds with the Google statement.

Bullit, LOL. I watched this movie again a couple months ago on HDNET for kicks. Just had to see the car chase again. I didn't notice the same green bug over and over until now. Ha ha.

Awesome car chase. No CGI. Probably caveman level stuntman safety protocol. Gas guzzlers running amuk in San Fran. Truely awesome.

P.S. The music is way cool too.

It is amazing the possibilities that Gmail gives... Google is really becoming one of the most powerful companies in the world, now that Bill gates retired. You can see this trend on this website http://www.themostpowerfulcompany.com Many people thinks that google has a lot to do before
