Woj, I'm really surprised that you, of all people, seem lately to have 
been converted to the Micro$oft Outlock-trained style of top-posting, 
including tail-quoting all sorts irrelevant and repeated trailers etc, 
after years of your (almost too- :) concise postings.

This list is getting very hard to follow as a digest anymore, when half 
of it or more is re-re-repeated overtailquoting of irrelevant trivia.  
Please come back from the dark side ..

Cheers anyway, Ian
