Just think how much more time you wasted replying to my posting!!!

By the bye, I seem to be in the other camp.  I *enjoyed* the various
postings!  It should be kept in mind that those who were posting were
in the main people whose industry and generosity have benefited me and
many others on the net.  I am happy to hear that their lives have been
enriched -- not angry because they dared to share something that I 
can't immediately download and run!!

I hope to hear more happy news as time goes on (if for no other reason,
it proves that at least some of you are human. . .).
