Maybe this is off-topic, but sometimes I want to control my lists and teach my supposedly computer illiterate posters the "right" way, when maybe I'd be just as well off chilling out and just using my time to advance the purpose of the lists.

Now with faster links, what's the gain in worrying about including some junk at the end of a post? Like, peace, man! :-) cheers, wayne
