I wonder what prompted the choice of the three newsgroups to which this
tread is cross-posted.  The errors cited in the original posting are
commonplace in all the newsgroups I read.  The English in
demon.homepages.authoring is generally better than most.  I don't read
the telecom ones so can't comment on those.
