Sorry. I did read the entire thread before writing any of my replies,
and tried to limit the replies to specific points that I wanted to
respond to. Would it be preferable in the future for me to exerpt all
those quotes into a single large reply message? I considered doing
that, but it breaks threading so I thought the replies I sent was a
better way to do it.
