To Mark : I gotta agree.

To cdawkins : if you are going to post something from another list then say
so at the start, you have simply cut and pasted the entire article into a
new message with no reference whatsoever as to where it was "lifted" from,
that’s pretty bad form, and asking for trouble from a number of viewpoints,
one of which is copyright.

On a different subject, someone asked a while back if this list was
available as a newsgroup, this list uses the Lyris list software which has
in built support for NNTP, there is in fact an NNTP server (Lyris) at
www.webelists.com but no isa list there, all this takes is for the admin of
the list to make it available as a newsgroup, it is a great way to read the
archives and the articles can be downloaded locally for reference and
searching.

Cheers

Phill

Well well... I've seen many a post that comes with smilies, and much of them
were not intended to be humourous for a start.

And sorry to say, your post missed even the slightest (at least
explicit) sign of forwarding. No FW, no quotes, you know all that fancy
stuff. So apart from guessing and searching the archives, what could tell us
that this was not a provocative post, possibly posted under a false
indentity?

Think about that then ;-)
