Another thing that will help is to get better performance out of the
Lyris servers. I guess because of the volume, something I posted
yesterday at 3:00 PM arrived at my desk at 5:30 PM. With that kind of
thing happening, 20 replies can come to the same question. But you know
what? Isn't it nice to know that 20 people are willing to take the time
out of their day to help. Awwww, I'm getting all fluffy now :-)

Just one problem with this - email delivery is not instant.  I often get

many follow-up postings before I receive the original question.

Sure, there are some sloppy folks out there (and I have seen several
folks 
say "Do this..." when the frustrated poster has already mentioned that 
"this" did not work).  However, if someone asks a very simple question, 
lots of folks are going to reply before they receive any of the
follow-up 
postings.
