LOL this etiquette issue of people quoting entire digests for just a single reply has been my biggest beef with this list for nearly 10 years now. Unfortunately I had to "get over it" because very few folks on this list actually know how to quote just a few relevant lines, rather than just hit the "reply" button.

But, I realized years ago there are bigger fish to fry. Or maybe I'm just mellowing out as I get older…

Cheers,
Gerry
