My remark was somewhat jocular, but I am, sadly, not that far
off. How about 3+% mislabelling? That would be enough if [NF] posts
are not FoxPro posts. I suggest that they are not given what "NF" stands for.
I have a backlog of ProFox posts from 2001 that I received but
never read and that I have been slowly going through. The difference
in tone is remarkable. The 2001 posts are, in general, quite polite
and on-topic. A rude post is very unusual. It is rather different
now. What changed?
Sincerely,
Gene Wirchenko
