site. so you've gotta use the word *nix.

i could start this discussion, but as you can see, i have too many
discussion threads initiated.

besides, *you* are the one with the valuable insights and counterpoints.
so, everyone on the list, rahul has some thought-provoking questions to
ask, and look forward to his new thread on this, [fresh email], which
will contain a brief synopsis, and a challenge/response to all at
ilug-d. his questions and requests for clarifications will get you
scratching your head.

over to you, rahul, and please start a new, fresh, email as a new
thread.

best of luck

:-)
