Beauregard,

Well, I can understand that. But, you know, whenever a group of people
get together for a face-to-face conversation, everyone will not follow the
same rules. Some people know how to listen, others don't, some people
interrupt, etc. It's not a perfect world.

In my experience, perfectionsists are very unhappy people, because they
find they cannot control everything to the nth degree.

Sometimes it's better to put up with people's idiosyncrosies....and even
learn to appreciate their differences. Why should we all be clones of each
other?

OK what?

Do you mean 'Replace ".invalid" with ".uk" to reply by e-mail' OK?

Are you OKing the bit about browsers disallowing window movement etc.

Are you OKing the anchor element up there?

It's bloody hard to tell.

What about a little bit of trimming. You know, get rid of all the stuff
(including sigs) that don't pertain to your two letter reply. What you have
here is almost as bad as top posting

By the time I see it you have finished scribbling, thus it has been
scribbled. OK?
