All that feedback just because Mary Jo wanted to test her news reader.

Someone using Forte Agent ought to be sophisticated enough to know basic netiquette regarding posting test questions.




Alan, you are being astonishingly, nit-pickingly silly about this.

And you, Evelyn are being astonishingly judgmental to infer that what annoys me is less than it ought to be, simply because the same thing does not annoy you. Perhaps it would be best if we leave 'to each his own,' and decide for ourselves what is an annoyance and what is not. And that done, do not try to project our decisions on others.



I enjoy your posts very much Alan, and frankly, though tempests in teapots strike me as a waste of time, but if that is what you like, go for it.

To paraphrase a saying, Evelyn, "watch the pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves." If you don't watch the pennies, you won't have any dollars to worry about. I trust you get the gist of those comments in view of yours.
