I've been nailed a lot worse than this on other news groups. The reply was directed at everyone that had made rude comments to the questioner. Your posting was readily available at the time I felt I should comment. Are you suggesting I should have inserted the same reply in every article that had a subject line that read "Lou Reed's past employment"? My employer expects me to work once in a while! *** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE ***
