I SAID I'm sorry to have dragged this on - I just have nothing better to do when I drink my morning coffee. > Don't let ego drag out a thread that was senseless right > from the start. I have no ego - but I admit I enjoy having the last word, even if it's incorrect, as it often is. And I was the 1st one to say the thread was stupid and probably trollwork. However, I read a few articles and learned a few things (admittedly, pretty useless) as a result of it. > Also, please do not change thread subject lines!

A subject line is for continuity of threads, not a > place to put your own personal opinions by changing the > subject (line). Lighten up. I did not CHANGE it, I added a phrase. It's done all the time. When Usenet consisted of 3,000 geeks, "rules" made sense to all of them. But it's not 1985 anymore. I read a thread in a group frequented by *serious* anal-retentives just yesterday, which had about 30 posts, 75% of them top-posting, and no-one even bothered to make an issue of it. I was actually surprised. -- Disagreements and the usual insults expected and welcomed.
