Nice compliment! Actually, we share an email account and there is a
note from the forum manager explaining that some question-answering
posts by SiFan (unrelated to the Asimov issue) were deleted by "over
zealous" forum assistants. As an intelligent person yourself, you should
be able to appreciate that this would tend to dampen enthusiasm for
posting to such a "forum".

Sampling net goodies is a good idea. It is too bad that one runs
across Vacuum Areas like A2-Delphi, but, that is a risk one takes when
just any bozo can put up a forum and staff it with children. Happily,
since you are here, _on_ _Csa2_, you can now avoid at least one Delphi
screw-up zone. You are, indeed, fortunate!
