Peter, I sure appreciate all your effort & time on the server, the searches,
the archives, the revised posting rules, etc.  You're a gem!!

Peter:
>  - Respond to only one message at the time (do not link responses together
into one ) and make sure to change the subject line if the subject of the
thread changes.

Bob:
Thank you.  Will do.  Much easier for me that way, but no spell
checker--sorry in advance!  :-)

>  - The daily message limit for each subscriber is raised from three to five
messages.

Bob:
No problem if time allows responding every 1-3 days, however when a week or
two messages pile up, should I:

        1--Not respond to more than 5?
        2--Link multiple responses in one post?
        3--Post more than five in that day, assuming you'll "debit" my excess posts
to my last 7-14 "zero-post" days?  (Message limits are cumulative, yes?)
