Dearest Robin,

In this day and age of spell checkers I am surprised that any one would =
send a post that was not at least correct in the spelling of the English =
word. To make the same mistake 3 times is also quite clever. To not =
check on what you have written before posting is a bit odd.=20
And its time for a bit of brevity in this topic.=20
And yes I am kidding, aren't you ?

Merry Xmas

Tony Caught

  Dear, Dear, Tony Caught,=20

       Now isn't this a rather trivial, unkind, and petty criticism, =

hand, belaboring yourself, and posting a reply.  You've got to be =
kidding.         =20

    Dear, Dear, John Delacour, Why is Noone stopping Dale from ignoring =
