Yes, of-course I knew this (not sure if this was aimed at me or was a 
general comment). However, unless I drop the References: as well, a lot 
of people will still see it in the same thread anyway; I could point out 
that a decent newsreader ought to be able to kill subthreads as well as 
whole threads, but since my own newsreader can't it would be a fairly 
lame excuse...

In any case, the content of the thread (the part I replied to, at any 
rate) does not belong in this group. Starting a new thread in this group 
to continue it would have been wrong. Instead I tried (unsuccessfully) to 
move it to email, where it would have been far better placed. 

FU to poster (again).

Mark.
