     For crying out loud!!!  Repeat after me:  It's ***not*** ``wanna'',
     it's ***want to*** .... ***want to*** .... ***want to***!!!!!!!

     The word ``wanna'' is a colloquial contraction of ``want to''.  It
     is acceptable in *very* casual oral communication.  It is ***NEVER***
     acceptable in written communication, except in the context of
     accurately rendering (verbatim) an oral communication (or perhaps
     for the purpose of humour).

         cheers,
