thank you everyone for the replies. one quick question though. is
it customary to thank people for replies? or does it just cause
more unecessary traffic on the newsgroup?
I'm pretty new here, and don't know for sure if it's considered
customary on this list or not, but I have a view.
I consider myself to be relatively human, and assume that others who
answer questions here do, too. ;-) IMO, saying "thanks" is good
manners here just like in the rest of the world.
One observation I have made is that this list sometimes looks like a
help desk forum: Somebody asks a question, and get one or a few
replies, and that's it. I don't know if that's how it's supposed to
be, but personally I would like to see more of follow-up comments on
posted suggestions, both from the original posters and from others. I
believe that everyone would benefit from such exchange of thoughts.
