Oh crap!  VAXman is probably going to tell me I've been posting
"quoted-pukable" as well, sigh...

I'm doing this reply in Notepad (using the FF add-on "It's All 
Text" to edit the web form.  Notepad doesn't understand the line
terminators that FF hands to it, so I have to split the lines by
hand, etc.  I'd prefer Wordpad, but *it* wants to write RTF files,
which isn't so great either.

Anyway, thanks, Paul, for pointing out the error of my ways (at
least this one :-).  Repeated apologies to those who had the
patience to wrap the long lines and read what I wrote...
