- If someone posts a question that you would like to hear the answers to,
- send the poster email asking for a summary. If the poster gets enough
- of these he should see that there is justification to post a summary to
- the net. You shouldn't feel that it is an imposition to ask someont
- for a summary, since they got their answers by the grace of others willing
- to take the time to respond. "It's not what youv'e got, it's what you
- give." - Tesla.
