I'd be very interested to find the equivalent of two part epoxy Sugru, or in other words a rubbery Milliput. Any suggestions? Coincidentally, such was my need only yesterday. I thought first of Sugru, balked at the price and delivery t

It's everyone, not just publishers. How many people here are preparing to ensure their web server doesn't log ip addresses before acquiring visitors' explicit permission to do so, for example?
