I don't know what I have to do to not anger you Paul, like I said, it was to
satisfy my curiosity.  I don't know Applescript at all and the times that I
do have to use it, I thought that knowing why you chose this method may help
me in the future, more or less, I was trying to learn something.

Of all the lists I am on, I ask a lot of questions, this is the only one I
hesitate to ask questions on, for this very reason.  I see it on this list
and only this list, I can guarantee I will get at the lest one email, as I
have in the past, telling me to not let your replies get to me, as you are
just "that way".  I actually thought to myself, should I reply to the
previous email in plain text or HTML as I know Paul will probably yell at me
for replying to script in plain text.  Then I thought that it is not
pertinent to the question that the script maintains the ability to be run so
I went for plain text.  Apparently my trepidation was misplaced.

Anyway, what I was looking for was a explanation of why you chose that
method.  Now I know that AS does in fact not have a built in replace
function.  

I wonder, how many people who read my email took it as me asking a simple
question to try and understand something versus me implying Paul did
something in an inefficient or less than ideal way?
