   Hmmm.  So invent a fake question?   
      
   I guess that would be one possible explanation for the posters that seem   
   to appear from nowhere, and only ever post once, to bash SM and spout   
   "XYZ Browser is better" type blather.   
      
   They wanted to post a "is the group still here?" question but knew a few   
   fuddy-duddies would have a fit...LOL   
      
   Thanks Dan!
