Am I the only one with a newsreader that can view the article that's being replied to? Just hit "^" and there it is. Sure, once in a while there'll be out-of-order propagation, but for folks like CBFalconer or you, Randy, there's no excuse for not using a decent newsreader and knowing how to use it. Quoting is polite, but you guys act as though it's the only way that anyone can find out what someone is replying to. -- Ben Pfaff email: blp@cs.stanford.edu web: http://benpfaff.org .
