Well Mark, I hate myself when I resort to this but I believe congratulations are in order for you. Your three line message in SCT-RENFREW-D Digest V03 #164 would have taken two A4 pages to print out if I had been silly enough to do so. The first page gave me the impression of how good and clever you were with all the positions that you had, or had held, the second page an unedited message from someone else. For such an "educated " person did no one teach you the ethics of editing to save wasted paper and stop wasting space and people's time downloading repeatedly unnecessary stuff. Spare a thought for those who have slow modems and are on pay as you go connection. If you have something to say be precise and cut out all the bull at the bottom. If you have something to offer, offer it. There is nothing worse than someone waving their greatness up my nose. I would hate to see what I got from you if you had done some research for me and I had to pay for it, especially if this is an example. Should those details have not applied to you I apologise.
