You know, Jack, I enjoy the cross-posting, as it opens up new
venues to look at, especially ones which as shared subjects.
I am not sure who has stated all these cross-posts,
but because I read AT Google newsgroups online,
I do not read all, nor do I have to DELETE as when
I have emails sent. It got to be huge, all the emails.
Until Google groups figures out a way (one, for instance,
is they only allow 5 croos-posts) I see no way but to let
the chips fall where they may. I could ask please of
the SOCK PUPPETS who drive away good messengers,
but that would only inflame them with their flame throwers
all the more. Besides, my ancestor William I The Conqueror
King of England Duke of Normandy was a famous naval man
who conducted one of the most successful naval invasions
of all times. Welcome aboard, mate!
