Hi everyone, I would like to request that you check whether your message has posted before posting the same message multiple times -- those of us on the mailing list wind up with several copies. To check if your message has posted, please use the "Refresh" button on your browser. Otherwise it may look as if your message didn't get through, when in fact it did. I then have to go to the board and remove all the extra copies, which is a pain... Also, it would be helpful if replies to a message are placed as a followup to the original. It makes things much more readable. I know this has not worked perfectly in the past, and I apologize. However, I can guarantee that if a message is visible from the front page, any followups to it will appear there as well. (The rare problems are usually due to the double-postings that are not fully removed -- another reason to be careful about them.) Thanks for your consideration!
