Steve, you got my point exactly. I agree with this change, and with
your appraisal of what I suggested. I was not trying to give exact wording,
more the "jist".
I think that the mere fact that somewhere in the FAQ list is says
"don't flame" is enough. The way you have worded it seems quite acceptable
to me. Thanks for your efforts, both at accommodating crusty old
curmudgeons like myself, and for trying to help make this newsgroup
more useful!
