Excuse the following, just random thoughts. When replying to posts, unless they are of true value to the members of the PICLIST please ensure that you reply to the original poster. I find it ammusing that threads run for days (even weeks occasionally) and that after the nth (n being >4 generally) reply the thread nolonger has any relevance to the original question. This would reduce the nuisance of sifting through 20-40 items every two days roughly. Is this reasonable. If you think that this is not reasonable, please relpy directly to me and NOT THE LIST.
