Sorry - I sent a message saying I would stop contributing to this thread
and take it elsewhere sometime last night..I meant that and I havn't
posted
anything to this thread since then.

According to my outgoing mail log, I sent the message you are replying
to
about 30 hours ago - and was pretty suprised to see it just pop up!

Who knows what happened??   Anyway, suffice to say I won't be posting
any more suggestions...

No - don't do that - I already asked people to contact me directly -
which
several have done. I'll set up a mailing list on my server if necessary.

*If* this happens, it'll be on LDD - but it won't be related to NTLUG in
any
way shape or form.
