Hey, happy Tuesday, how's everybody doing? I just wanted to take a
moment out of my afternoon to remind everyone about the awesome search
technology this mailing list is built on. It's called Google, and it
can help you quickly and efficiently find answers to questions that you
might have.

without solution.
Maybe nobody reads...

I'll gladly help you with that, John, if you're interested! Still feel

morning all,
just thought i would chime in with my 2.
i agree, there are a lot of beginners about the place.
at one stage being a Cake newbie myself, it has only been through
serious time dedicated have I managed to come out with what I think to
