It really is too bad that this impression is what may be taken back
to the Beagle decision makers, but I can understand given the amount
of complaining and almost total lack of thanks that has been given
Beagle.  I sent a note with some suggestions for improvement to the
postings (along with my thanks I might add) and it was acted upon.
Given that the software is free, I did not *expect* action and
anybody with a little common sense should realize that you shouldn't
look a gift horse in the mouth.
 
Again, I thank Beagle Bros. for making their old software available
for free and I hope that more people will voice their appreciation
instead of their complaints.
