I would hope you could look past >>his writing style and consider the issues he raises. The responsibilities of >>your position on a standard-creating committee demand it. I can't respond to Gary as his (and possibly several other) letters never reached us here (I've been rather busy and might have missed one). But my comments about Richard were encased in "flame" and ":-)" marks which had been removed in one message I saw. That ain't netiquette! In case there is misunderstanding: I know full well Richard is a New Zealander; I appreciate his style and (often) his humour; and I think he probably understands mine. So no aggro. If my humour is off the line please let me know. Face-to-face communication is difficult enough goodness knows; across continents, heaven help us! And as I've said before: if I'm representing the line of a committee I'll say so; otherwise I'm speaking for myself as one member among many. Chris Moss.
