This is of course nonsense as many (including you, Lew) do not get tired to point out. The only other explanation I have is that people seem to assume readers can not only read their newsgroup postings but their minds as well. That seems as unrealistic as the former assumption to me... :-) For people interested in musings about "quality" here's a nice book about the matter: http://www.amazon.com/dp/0061673730 Cheers robert
