[purple]As I am new here, please, please, please forgive the bad pun. I am particularly proud of that one because it is original[/purple]

Now now, youngsters, let's give the Newbie a break - we can use another punster if for no other reason than to challenge Ted to even greater heights.

just a reminder (and moreso for the newbies), a long string of extraneous characters (such as B(ran)S's yellow virgules above) will cause some folks' windows to go wide (generating scroll bars to view the entire thread!).

the same thing will happen with long URLs, a good reason to learn how to use the insert URL funcion.

Sorry Tswum, sounds frightening. I won't do it again. Totally ignorant
of technical implications.I'll be careful.

And Anna: I did not mean to nitpick. I really didn't know the word.
It was just a typo.

Heights? This is obviously some definition of "heights" of which I was previously unaware.

Dear ParkinT,
I hope you take our ribbing with grain of salt. I know that in the past our teasing has been misunderstood. We wouldn't tease you if we didn't like you. Instead, no comments would be made or we would tell you you are burdensome. [blowing kisses-e]
