Misunderstandings in written are so easy :-) I have been following this
thread for a while and I did not read or understand that either, until
the last Gary's last post.
One of the first things I was told when I started working in the
nineties was that "email is easiest way to get into a fight with
someone". Nowadays email can be replaced with any written conversation
but it is still the same that it is pretty hard to get a single common
understanding of something.
