Why this cram of requests back to the list?
Please, send the request back to the original sender, Gyde Lund,
NOT TO THE LIST.

Lesson A in teaching Internet netiquette (behavioural code of conduct):
Please, always check the To: address, even when you use the
"Reply-button". You should select the From: -address, not the
Reply-to: -address, when you want to send a personal reply!
(The Reply-to: points back to the list.)  And, remember that the
Subject: -field should *never* be empty.

I apologize for this additional educative piece of junk mail
(mail not dealing with the topic of the list) I'm forcing into your mailbox.
Of course it is not junk to you who didn't know these facts,
but you all did, I hope?  :-)

Jarmo Saarikko
your reluctant flamer,
who received his copy today, in  4 days!
