OK Phil, I was getting worried about you.  Glad you really don't have PMS! 
Thought you might be going off the rails like good Old Harry did shortly 
after I joined this list.  Glad everything is cool!  73, Jim

Jim,

It was a down and dirty narration done in thick syrupy sarcasm based upon
someone complaining we got too many GoldLine microphone posts.  Maybe I was
aiming too high or too low.  I'll check my gage.  Shoot, why should I care
how many same subject emails come through.  I was on a list once where a
blind woman asked how do you get the hair out of your bathtub lint and hair
trap because it is so icky to touch.  The thread literally carried on daily
for 18 months.  I am not joking either.  I thought the whole thread was
funny but I never replied to it.  Talk about not letting something die; that
was it.

Phil.
