The phrase you quoted caught my attention and I felt that it must be discussed.

I never found the original thread, my apologies to you, but it did 
say "Service Manual." This means the original poster asked for a 
'verboten' document,  and since you said you had it (it being the 
'service manual') you were included.

That's all I wanted to say. I think the thread is done now.

You have, I just got picky this past week as we are working on moving 
things to my server. Plus it allowed me to set a rule about the new 
lists and a reminder to those that either didn't know or quickly 
forget.
