You've obviously never moderated an Internet group or mailing list, or you would never be so presumptuous to make a statement like that.

What century are you living in? Don't know what e-mail program you're using, but I don't know of anything that was created in the last 20 years (or longer..) that won't let you click on a link enclosed in an e-mail. Perhaps you should take a look in the mirror before accusing others of making things "difficult". -- GregR On 10/24/2010 1:36:51 PM, Douglas Denny (douglas.denny@btopenworld.com) wrote: > Frank wrote: > > "Please, NEVER do this again.
