Dear Doug,

As Fred noted, the irony is that
your own message didn't include a
subject line.  I endorse Fred's
suggestion that you should study
Steve Lelievre's note.

I would add a personal plea not 
to go in for "Top Posting"...

Your message was followed by lines
and lines of unnecessary repetition
of text that had been sent earlier.
All you need is a short quote to
give context, as in my note above.

Top-posting can clog up the
digest of any subscription list
such as this one.  Some very
simple mathematics demonstrates
the growth behaviour that occurs
if everyone uses Top Posting.

Very best wishes

Frank
