*I* didn't write that! That's the way it came! Don't you remember
where you posted from?

Apparently we *aren't* dealing in the present, are we?
Anyhow, #1 It was pointed out to me last night that chi.mail is not
the local news group some of us would like it to be and #2 This has
ceased to be about clout, but about about our petty qualms.
Therefore, I will close by saying, "You're absolutely right, Karl;
you're always right, and anyone who argues with you is a d***
fool." I yield to your point 100%.
