Ummm...OK.  But if it all the same to you, would you mind not doing
it anymore?  It interrupts the mailbox flow of those of us who do

BTW, I didn't make this up.  You didn't seem to like it when I
suggested that you had "hijacked" the thread, but hitting reply to
post a new topic is basically the definition of thread hijacking:
