Your next big decision is which newsreader to use. So far I've seen
you post using Xnews, Thunderbird, and OE.

Yeah (grins sheepishly). I have a few computers around at home and tend to
use whatever one is handiest when doing email or newsgroups. Those three
readers are my favourites, and I'm just a guy who can't make up his mind. If
I could pick and choose various points from each and combine them into the
one reader what a happy chap I would be. And how many of us have sung that
tune over time. My son tells me that means I engage with the software I use
at an emotional level instead of a strictly tech user level. I have trouble
with Word, Word Pro, Word Perfect, Jarte, and Open Office as well. I'm just
a 63 year old compulsive fiddler who can't leave well alone (smile)
