First of all, this was VERY hard to read because it was formatted
at 88 char long lines. All the world is not a SUN with wierd
sized screens

I agree! I have exchanged email about the priceing of CRISP and
there was some comments about lowering the price (with some

individual to buy it (like you and I) the price has to get down
to a reasonable level!
