If I can answer a question, or help towards an answer, I'll do it here.  I suspect that a lot of the people who want an e-mail reply don't understand that that's an extra charge on the 'phone bill for a lot of people who aren't in the USA.  As it happens, I've got a toll-free connection now -such things are finally starting to happen in the UK- but I'm still inclined to think that anybody who really wants an answer should be prepared to come back and see if they've got one!
