Criminy. Is it really necessary to point this out?
This is Tony's first post to the list. What a nice
friendly place this has become.
(I'll point out that excessive use of exclamation
points and all-uppercase words demonstrates careless
writing as well.)
Non-cladistic though this fellow's question may be, I
hope it will not be pointedly ignored like so many
coming from non-pros seem to be these days.
