Hi,

Did you mean to post that to the list itself?  :)

I probably shouldn't, myself; I am a bit /persona non grata/ on this 
list, at least to some people.  Also, this is off-topic.  As you say, it 
adds to the rubbish.  But sometimes, I can't resist.  :)

We will probably get an "Effin shut up, already!" from someone for these 
posts.

Sigh.
