Sean,

 DS>   Another encryped message with invisible ink <j/k><G>.

 SD> There is an unknown issue that I haven't bothered to fix with the
 SD> program I use to post messages from files.

  No problem...I figured you were aware of it.

  All I can think of is the title of the cartoon from "The Ant And The
Aardvark"...where the aardvark builds this "computer" to try to catch
the ant. Well, like Wile E. Coyote and Acme (that's probably who made
that computer <G>), "it was a smashing failure".

  So, at the end of the cartoon, the exchange goes like this:

Aardvark: "As a computer, you stink!!"
Computer: "Who said I was a computer?? I'm an automatic pop-up toaster!!
And, I'll prove it!!"

<computer spouts out about 100 pieces of toast>

Aardvark (now buried under the toast), "Anybody got a pound of butter??" <G>

  The title of the cartoon: "Technology, Phooey!!" <G>.

Daryl

... "Oh, Bother!!" said Pooh, as he corrupted his tagline collection.
