And I must ask that you refrain from such parting shots at the end of otherwise helpful messages. Of course I searched the archives, and what I found there was useful.

Furthermore, most of the responses I've received to my query came by private mail. They're not going into the archives this time unless I summarize them to the list; can you be sure they've appeared there before?
