- Hello Steven,
-
- I'll forward this to comp.compression to get a wider audience for
- your very important question. I am worried about the same, and
- don't have an answer.
-
- All the best, Timo
-
- P.S. Dear readers of comp.compression. Please post rather than
- email your observations for a wider circulation.
