All this signature/cookie stuff on a busy mailing-list is disturbing and strange, to say the least. Luckily the snip-enuff-procedure has been understood pretty well. No 48 kB posts here saying "well said". Yes, there are mailing-lists like that :-( If I remember correctly, Miguel said earlier that the main thing on a list like this is to get information. Couldn't agree more. I don't give a damn *who* sends whatever solutions to whatever problems. I care about the problem-solving and ideas. If it comes from listmember Dr. X (with an invalid signature and a random quotation from a classic book) then it's OK - if the solution works, that is. If it comes from a green thingy from Mars who doesn't want want to make himself/herself/itself all that important and neglects the "I'm me, really"-stuff then it's even better - his/hers/its mail is probably much more compact. Personal mails, of course, are a totally different thing. -- Best regards, Pete -- ________________________________________________________ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
