Interestingly, they (big blue) seem to have received enough flack that they reconsidered this. I dredged up a customer number and went back to the site to yield my pound of flesh, and (woa!) I didn't need a customer ID anymore. They let me register in a fairly reasonable fashion, and I now have a logon and all of my children (well, most of the ones that haven't seriously run amuck, anyway). Maybe jumbo shrimp isn't an oxymoron either. Thanks IBM! I take back what I said about the divorce.
