[Shop-talk] Host file

[Mike Rambour]

  1996 technology that I got from Eric "inch" works REALLY great for me, 
way better than Adblock ever did, since Adblock stops the ads, the hosts 
file stops everything.  Your mileage may vary but sometimes the old 
technology is just better than the new stuff....
