Prohaska) Organization: Sun Microsystems, Mountain View Lines: 19 I am always amazed at people's concern about sentences that end with prepositions. It brings to mind something Churchill apparently once said: "This is the kind of nonsense up with which I will not put." Or, as Pirsig remarks, "Hundreds of itsy-bitsy rules for itsy-bitsy people." Nonetheless, I see no reason to flame the original poster. His sentiments are certainly reasonable and should have offended no one. Regards, J.R.
