The missing comma, that you missed. The difference between my post, and Jeff's
correction. Read them both, carefully, and you'll see that the comma that I should
have, and thought I did type, isn't there.

I recall an email from you, the tone of which was very indignant that I repeated
your name. I've never done it since. Seems that you never let a grievance go, do
you?

No surprise there.

Maximum verbosity, as Zork would phrase it.

Well, well, and all I did was point out that it was posted twice, and it takes two
posts from Jeff, and two posts from you to *finally* point out that there have
been some mail server errors. Strange though, most of the other duplicate posts
have happened on the same day, while Jeff's were several days apart. Which is why
in my original post I had asked if he had accidentally resent it. Lighten up,
there were no personal comments made or implied until (unless I misread Jeff, but
then, I always *try*  to assume the best, unlike some people I could mention) your
posts today. A tempest in a teacup.

You need a "helping verb" there Tom, perhaps Jeff can help you with that. Or
perhaps you have had a few sticking keys too. Or even a slight oversight. It
happens to us all.
