Hey mark!

Okay that looks better.  I have you down as en_US.utf8 and EST5EDT.  Should be
no issue given your hidden CHRS thingy which is totally bogus btw.  ;-)

 ml> original type 2

It was in it's original form prior to WeBeBashing.  Sometime between 1999-ish
to 2005-ish.  It started out as a 'fix' to some issues I had at the time.  I
only picked it up again later on and started calling it WeBeBashing.

 ml> type 2+ and type 2.2...

Probably 2+ if that is the one without the domain in the header.  Also I
thought there was an incarnation without a broken apart localtime thingy which
I never got working with anyone but was attractive since I never was a fan of
any ftn datetime stamps to be quite honest.  Currently the pkt header that
gets tacked on prior to uploading contains a 16-bit month ranging between 0-11
which is not only a waste of bits but also silly since numerically June is
actually 6 and never 5 ... except amongst certain progammers who insist the
first on EVERYTHING is actually 0 which in this case it isn't ... except it
is.  :::sigh:::

 ml> we're not too far of in our likes and dislikes, contrary to
 ml> popular belief...

Speaking for myself I was never aware there was any conflict between us,
although I can understand why some might think there was.  Definetly no
conflict as far as I am concerned and I never was under the impression there
was any at your end.  As far as I know I get the impression we like to take
pokes at each other when the opportunity to do so arises, such as your bogus
CHRS thingy.  ;-)

Life is good,
Maurice
