The last thing I want to do is consign all your postings to the trash, Bob. You are a great contributor to the list. And I don't want to come down as some sort of moralistic preacher about these things. All I wanted to do was the remind you (and others) that everyone has buttons that can be pushed, and that political remarks generally don't accomplish anything except triggering emotional responses. So the result is infrared shift: no more light on anything, just more heat. I guess my question is, is that what you want? script of my button: on mouseup put the text of fld "email" into tRemark if isOffensive(tRemark) then steamComesOutOfMyEars answer "Respond?" with "reply" or "ignore" if it is "reply" then answer "What tone?" with "blast" or "tactful" end if if it is "blast" then answer "Don't do it!!!" else if it is "tactful" then answer "Let's just get back to LC, shall we?" else pass mouseup end if end mouseup -- Peter Peter M.
