ejm duggan-- OK, I don't know who RICHARD is, but I presume you are talking to me. If you have a problem w/ how I post messages, just explain the problem politely and I can adjust my posting practices accordingly. The hostility in your message (including your attempt at sarcasm) seems entirely unnecessary. I would show you what I mean, but that would entail my quoting you. Sorry you were so put out.
