Escapee's from the M$ world seem to think the forum is some sort of 
magic. Very easily impressed frogs IMO.  For me its a PIMA, as I can't 
remember where the heck it is, and did I ever register a I&^$% password, 
and if so, what the heck is it? At my age, I've got far better things to 
do with ny dwindling wet ram.

The mailing list comes to me 100% automatically, I read it, if I can 
answer a question I can with one click of the mouse on the proper reply 
style icon in the kmail toolbar, type my reply, and hit a ctl+return to 
send.  With the background scripts I have running, that is literally all 
I have to do.  Call me lazy, but a forum is a right pain in the arse in 
comparison.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
