I've been reading SF-Lovers for, gee, must be a year now, and
though it didn't take me very long to pick up on most of the
slang & jargon used here, there's still one thing that eludes
me. Can somebody explain to me the precise meaning of ":-)"?

Respond directly to me if you like; no need to clog the digests
with such trivia.
