Which various reasons??? You are scaring me a bit.
I have some script around relying heavily on createElement, and I'm not 
sure to have implemented a "graceful downgrade" or whatever. 
"document.createElement must work or you can trash your browser" - that 
is the actual state of things [in my scripts].

Oh yes, I played wit DOS, DRDOS, AmigaOs, TOS, Real/32, AROS, Syllable, 
OS/2, Novell 3.12 & 5, and Android and MacOs, and... But the word 
"*Slackware*" clarifies every doubt one can have. It means only one 
thing: LINUX. :-) [Debian, Suse, RedHat too, with the only possible 
exception of the song "Panama Red" from Seldom Scenes, and a sloppy 
neuron fuzzy on RedHat).

No, I'll try, and I have a Kernel 3.something (Ubuntu 12.04) on a test 
machine to tinker with before to put in producton Slackware 14.1 64-bits 
(also a 3.x kernel).
[I'm testing mainly SAMBA with old ISAM databases-a mess]

Agreed. You are talking to a man that saves every bit and every cycle 
where/if possible. I started with a 1-Kb "computer", Sinclair ZX-81.
You never really escape from your imprinting :-)

[OT - but not so much] ?! I think I could easily write a bot that reads 
addresses from the newsgroups, less easily to write one that elaborates 
the fake addresses (apart the "at" trick). Please [if you have time] 
elaborate.

[Edit] A doubt: are you referring to "DanCa" or to the fake mail 
address? What's wrong with nicknames? Sorry if it's a silly question but 
I have no problem at all to put my name, surname, face and Fiscal Code 
Number, if needed. From the Eighties anyway I use nicknames and it has 
always been just "normal" to do it this way.

:-) YOU are taking me seriously, anyway [this time] [it seems]. This 
contradicts your last sentence! [joking]
