AX really talks for us all who use text based readers. It's just that he has
more patience than most. When I have to try to read something eithr in html or
too long for my screen, I just hit the DEL key and ignor the post. Why should I
be requires to go to extreme lengths to help another when it is not really
necessary. I don't mind doing a little research when needed, but why should
reading the request be more dificult that needed? Just my 2 cents,
