what wee need is a rule, that if you demand folks should move the thread to
such-and-such a list, that YOU ACTUALLY DO THAT.  I will admit, Julian, you
came closest, you at least posted to -chat, would have been pretty good, if
only you'd removed -current before you sent it.  Why do folks always insist
on the other fellow do what you won't do?

I mean, it's not embarrassing, it should be easy to do, shouldn't it?  But
there's been about a half-dozen or more requests on this very thread, to
move it to -chat, but no-one seems able to do it.  Huh?
