Sorry Ian! I was referring to the lack of humour in postings from
yourself and Nathan.

Oh yes. On Topic! Dr. Tom is back on-line! I have (perhaps stupidly)
suggested an experiment to Nathan - could we please stick to the topic.

Maybe we can all learn what Dr. Tom has to offer if we don't spend every
post discussing his past. I hope so, anyway. I'd invite everyone
to partake in a lttile experiment, which I shall also agree to
if I see evidence of it happening.

When we reply, make the effort to understand the question before
taking the post apart.

No PERSONAL discussions. I.e. no Dr. Tom has green hair and wears a pointy
hat, or Nathan has purple teeth. It doesn't matter!

Try and help even if it's the wrong group they're in. You may find
they enjoy our company so much they buy an Apple ][ and stay :)

I look forward to seeing if this works. Shall we try it for two weeks...

If it gets too boring, or you can't help yourselves, then I guess things
might as well go back to normal after that time.

Regards to all (and welcome back Dr. Tom)
Richard.
