Good for you, Roger. I've seen those slashes, underscores and asterisks in various posts but had no idea what significance they had (which is an odd thing for me to say now that I think of it - those are some of the same symbols used in wiki markup). I occasionally see postings with lots of gratuitous question marks, and more rarely lots of asterisks. I assume these mean something else (or are associated with certain email programs). Keep that growl handy - I can think of several other places where it might be useful. Jim McKenney
