Please don't reply to this message from Jared. The message below from Jared
is what's known as a "troll" or an offensive posting made so that the writer
will have a chance to take center stage and watch everyone else scamper
around. We used to get these all of the time on this list - way back before
it was hosted by Victor or even PlanetNewton.

If this requires further discussion it can be taken off-list.
