Hi :)
Wow, it is good to see the idea of customer care being advocated by someone on this list.  When i saw who was advocating it i nearly fell off my chair!  As it is my screen is now covered in tea and needs a good clean.  Thanks for cheering me up and yes i agree that it would be good to avoid insulting new people that post to this list.  

@ Alon
Many apologies for any insult i gave.  

Regards from
Tom :)

It's much nicer if posters on this list: 1) used a client that properly
shows message threading, 2) bothered to check the facts prior to posting.

It's also easy enough to check the headers of Alon's _original post_ and
see that there are no 'In-Reply-To' and/or 'References' headers.

Newness has nothing to do with it... I reckon that both you and
'webmaster-Kracked_P_P' owe Alon Bar-Lev an apology.

As an FYI: 'webmaster-Kracked_P_P's orginal post (only one he's made on
this list as OP regarding fonts) was similar, but not this thread:
