Mary,

Richard was not the original author of this message; he wrote the first
paragraph in response to Rick Strom writing the message about Richard's web
site (Actually, Rick's msg. starts from the paragraph 'Save yourself the
time....' and ends at the 'Killfile' comments, the rest of the message is from
Richard). Rick is the one who should keep the flames off the mailing list, not
Richard.

Richard, if you're joking, it would be a courtesy to
put a smilie 8:)   of some sort at the end of your "joke" -
"practical"  jokes hurt, in case you've never been told
this by your mother, but I'll stand in for her  (I'll be 63
this year).

What is written is understood by different persons in
different ways.  You already have replies from people
who were offended.  (including me - but I just  "consider
the source", and it seems to me that you're learning
as you go along.  But why do it the hard way ?  Don't
play games unless you let everybody know in advance.
Do YOU get the message now ?)
