And let's not forget that Olin often acts as "whip"
for this forum spending his time and image trying
to keep some semblance of order on the list. I
imagine that he speaks for *many* when he criticises
sloppy hard to read posts or people who have not
done their homework before expecting everyone else
to provide a solution for them, or even non-standard
email formats that cause extra work for the poor
person trying to help you. The list would suffer if
200 of the 2000 members criticized each new problem,
so we sit back and let Olin do that dirty job? :o)
