I just responded to this posting in another newsgroup.
Please don't multipost. Usually, posting to one newsgroup
is enough. If you _must_ post to multiple groups,
crosspost, don't multipost. Please search groups.google.com
for threads where an old-timer (not me) chewed out a newbie
for multiposting and provided an URL to a page that
described proper netiquette on the topic.

Good luck.
