Many thanks to the people who have responded to my rants. Should I send you a thank you email or
do you get way to much email as it is?

If this is a serious question and not a troll, the answer is that a 'thank you' should be sent in
the same way the assistance was: if the help was in the NG, then the thank you should be here too.
If the help was by e-mail, then the thanks should be by e-mail also.

Thanks for asking!

Dear Charles,

It's surprising how many private emails circulate behind the scenes, most of them remarkably
good-natured ones like yours.

You're brief, you're clear, your good intentions are obvious--if anyone objects to that, they can
take comfort in the delete button.

Let's see, brief, clear, good intentions . . .

In general, one out of three for me.

Thanks for your example of good manners.
