I did read what you wrote, Max, and while perhaps he overreacted a bit to your lack of tone, the content itself wasn't all that incorrectly characterised. Webforums are the anti-christ. There are vanishingly few decent interfaces for then, you can't conveniently delete big batches out of your view if you don't want to pay attention to it, you can't archive them, it's often difficult to reply to someone privately and when you *do*, you have to switch tools, and probably half a dozen *other* good reasons. Actually, most mailing lists should really be Usenet groups, and maybe now that the September that Never Ended is over, we can go back there where we belong. alt.tv.pvr.myth, anybody? :-) Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
