of all the list i subscrbe to this list seems to be the one with the most
off topic postings...so i hardly read it anymore...javascript questions,
jdbc questions, etc. all i'm saying is the poster knew that his question was
offtopic and had the courtesy to put it in the subject so you can simply
delete it unlike the other junk i get...while i suppose technically this
shouldn't be done or encourage it's better than getting a "how do i get a
popup window to appear" posting. again, i don't encourage it, just thought
the reply was rather harsh considering everything else i've seen. could have
just said, "this posting is very off topic, please consider posting to the
visual age newsgroup" instead of saying no one here is interested in your
off topic post.
