... but your posts do not reveal your dyslexia, and so far I have
found all that you have said has been stated in a highly readable
fashion. For someone who struggles with the written word, Oz -
you've managed a pretty fine job!!

True... but there are occasions when poor spelling has got in the
way of getting the information across. (badly-spelt URL, for
instance?) Thankfully, these are few and far between.

I have noticed that the majority of posters in the ngs I follow are
sensible, intelligent people who try their best to help others and
are fairly tolerant of other people's shortcomings (this includes {R}
- I have seen the assistance he has given to people who sound
genuinely lacking in knowledge). And your quote that the more
intelligent think they're not too smart, whereas the dimmer ones
consider themselves to be the brightest ones around certainly
holds true for many that I have had the pleasure of communicating
with.

I'm glad to be part of this "user community".

.. and you can put the blowtorch down now, Oz.
