   Well, it really was that easy. (BTW, please ignore the sentence "I guess   
   the problem wasn't...", it hurts *my* head trying to parse that, and I   
   wrote it)   
      
   I added comp.sys.mac.advocacy back to the newsgroups line, the followups   
   are respected in MT-NewsWatcher, so responding to those posts defaults   
   to sending it directly to that group.   
      
   Snit, if you're still game about using alt.flame.macintosh, this may   
   help...
