Whoaaaaaa. Monya, I appreciate that you're trying to do a good job at school. The list is for technical questions..........and a few OT posts <chuckle> I'd suggest three things for you: A) Change the subject -- "Re: now signed up" is not appropriate B) Explain in the beginning of your post why you're asking for the information. I seem to remember you explained in another post, but it should be with the current post. C) Ask people to respond to your request OFF THE LIST. There are two reasons for this; a) to keep off topic posts to a minimum, and b) to provide more privacy to responders. Recognize that most people will not provide the name of their company, nor their own real name for security purposes. This is a practice YOU should also follow. Personal data like name, address, phone numbers, company, passwords, SS numbers, etc., should NEVER be given to public lists. Remember too, Monya, that most of the 700+ members of this list are not professional computer systems people -- in fact very few are. The list exists to help people who are novices, or who are hobbyists. Most of the "experts" here are serious hobbyists that have other full time professions and do this for....heck, I don't know, virtual brownies?!? Virtual hugs?!? List members.....if you choose to respond to Monya to help her -- please DO NOT respond to the list, E-Mail her directly.
