Hmmm... the first time I went in that way, a few years ago, I had a lot of
message areas that I'd much earlier selected from the traditional dialup
interface, they carried over.  I'm pretty sure I didn't select them again...
well, 99% sure.  It's been a few years.

I'm still trying to understand this (there are probahbly only a few thousand
such interfaces I've learned in the past).  It's hard for me to believe I
would have selected everything else, and left out my own!

Well, you give me hope that I will be able to add it.  And that the directions
I already gave to the gang in i-mail will be adequeate to get them here.

CTRL-F from firefox!  Okay, good to know.  I'll have to try that.

Sounds complicated, but I'll give it a go, Once again, the mousy interface,
the one that's supposed to make it brainlessly easy for everyone, eaven
without any knowledge nor experience, is what's really making it
mind-numbingly arbitrary and absolutely non-instinctine.

Zorgu!
