My compuspeak-superdecipher, key-code program interprets all incoming
messages automatically. Especially from the MG folks after a few lagers. So
no problem on my end understanding you Eric.

In case anyone worries about my mental faculties...

I frequently have a big, nasty, processor-power-sucking program running
in the background (well, I wish it was in the in the background) while I
am typing.  This means that sometimes I type but nothing happens, hence
phrases like "maybesome info there" which was meant to be "maybe I left
out some info there".

Retyping *through* the 'pause' in processing can mean you end up with
words like "acceleratator" - and the whole damn distraction leaves you
making typos like "so I know have" instead of "so I now have".

Just in case you were wondering!!!

I will try to re-check my messages more thoroughly before hitting the
SEND button!


Grrr
