correct..  Not that I know anything anyway...


Which has absolutely nothing to do with the misuse of the term "forum". There's only one person I know who uses the term "forum" to describe a mailing list. And he's just admitted he refuses to learn.

BTW - please don't top post and please don't use HTML on this mailing list. Thanks.
