> > Louis: > Louis: First thanks for posting this. I do however want to correct your description: 'lurker'. It is true, that as a ML-ist, I do not post here often. But I have posted. I keep out of fruitless areas of contention. I sent it to you to ensure that I was not posting something only of interest to ML-ists. I may not have been clear enough. But thanks again.
