Thank you to Luke & Linda. proves you are never too old to
learn something new if you ask the right people.
Kind of wish I didn't learn about the Win option. Now five
years worth of ranting was for nothing. I guess I figured

John,
They are there for a good reason, because, possibly unlike
yourself, many users are fumbling cretins. :) (No offense to any fumbling
cretin that happens to read this.)
Asking for confirmation on deletion of anything is always a good
thing, unless you get to a point where-
One of the things which annoyed me most about DOS-Windows
was the asking whether you really do want to delete a file.
Of course I wanted to delete it or I wouldn't have pressed
the stupid button. Did I ever delete a file by mistake? Yes
of course but I am sure I never stopped on the second window
