Where did they borrow from you?
I didn't see "hork mode" anywhere... :-)

Hi Jim,

That's a great point! They really are watching and waiting for input.
Just look at the TMG Help file. Even though the product is in early
beta, I'm really impressed with the work they've done on it. I mean,
REALLY impressed! They've caught up with all the issues that came up in
ISA versions, and brought those issues to light.

I also like how they've borrowed much of my phraseology. That's the
great form of flattery! :))

Tom
