Having been properly rebuked, I pledge to try to combine posts in the 
future (although I agree that this practice makes the discussions 
more difficult to follow).  But -- 

How does one go about combining posts?  As I type this right now on 
the message board, I only have the text of this one post to edit and 
to respond to.  Do the people who combine posts all use e-mail 
delivery?  Do they open multiple copies of Explorer?  How do they 
remember who said what and how do they lift portions of other posts 
to edit while they are replying to a post?  And what are these 
digests that Mindy speaks of?

Sorry I am such a non-techie, but perhaps if this were explained a 
bit, some of us (er, me) would be more capable of following the rules.

Cindy (who has things to say regarding other posts, but can't 
remember what they are now because she is busy writing this one)
