PLEASEEEEE! Keep only what is needed from the quoted message. Everybody pays for the extra, unnecessary verbiage and it takes FOREVER to get to YOUR response. I myself, if I don't see part of the response on the first screen, will press 'n' automatically. It takes some extra effort to clean up the reply, but it will undoubtedly widen your audience. Thank you for listening. -- Marco -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= "Xerox sues somebody for copying?" -- David Letterman -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
