Hasn't this message appeared in my Inbox from this list about three or four
times, by now? And hasn't there been discussion about this dictionary? I
even remember a couple of people on this list trying it out and saying they
really enjoyed it. Maybe you missed all those messages? Thanks for the
suggestion, though.
