That is a really great suggestion. Many who have not read this group (news.announce.newusers) before should do so even if they have been on the Net for a while. Another good point: if the original poster has spammed many groups, as this one has, each of us who do a follow-up are adding to the spam, well-intentioned as it may be. I suggest we all end this thread right here. Often a reply is the better choice if the intent is to answer-back the originator.
