Thanks for the hundreds of responses to my Wait() query!

The more than a dozen follow-ups make me curious 'bout a few things
though.  

	1)  Would deleting the original posting after I recieved and answer
            and posted a summary have prevented anyone non-local from seeing
	    (and hence, replying) to it?

	2)  Do you have to say "Email, please, will post summary?"

	3)  What documentation were you guys using?  Or did you spend
	    the first year you had an Amiga memorizing the RKM's and
	    creating a mental cross-reference?  (I've been trying to
	    write code for the last 2 1/2 years, would it have been more
	    productive to memorize?)  Or was the dearth of replies a 
	    function of how many hours you knew it might take me to
	    discover the answer for myself?
