Igor: I'm just suggesting being judicious in our advice. The theoretical and comprehensive is great when that's appropriate. I just don't think it's appropriate to throw out something that's tentative at best. And, unless you're going to say, "I use/used this, and it was pretty darn good," it's all theoretical and not necessarily practical. And, then what happens, is we get to clean up the mess that can follow on this list. On Wed, 22 May 2002, Igor Gueths wrote: > Hi janina.
