G'morning William,

I confess to descending to ASCII art and sub-paragraphing on 
occasion, which doesn't appreciate reformatting by local or 
distant software....

Fair enough....

....and easily done.

All in all,  MM is doing better and better as I get to grips with 
its nuances !

Thanks muchly !
