Gee, folks, nobody faults you for not having been here to discuss the topics
the first time round. To be honest, if it's in the VFAQ (Very Frequently
Asked Questions) file, then you might experience somebody saying "not
AGAIN". But that's why we have the VFAQ -- to avoid that. Anytime we
Moderators see a topic getting the "Yes, we too spotted that gleam in
Dumbledore's eye" treatment, we try to add it to the VFAQ in the hope that
someone'll read it. Of course, some folks (come on, you know who you are
::wink::) will miss (or downright ignore) the VFAQ message which is sent to
them on subscription, and we can't help that.

But, newbies (and lurkers), unless your preference is to lurk (and that's
cool too, don't get me wrong), feel free to chip in.

Cheers,

--John
