Thanks for the advise on URI::Escape/method. I didn't know it existed
until now.

Also wanted to thank you for _ALL_ your "inadvertent" help over the
last 4-5 months. I've got over 700 "Of Interest" mails saved from
this list & most involve you & Japhy. Just want to let you know that
your time, knowledge & patience is greatly appreciated.

I wish you & yours, health & prosperity in the coming year. Thank you.
