Hi, James!  Recently you wrote in a message to Ardith Hinton:

JB>  Typo: "*SHUCKS* right back!"


            I thought that was probably what you meant....  :-)



JB>  I need to work on my proofreading skills. ]-:


            While you're at it, I'd suggest you look up "affect"
and "effect". You may of course be aware of the difference
already... but what often happens is that we see what we meant to write,
not what we actually wrote.  One way of getting around the problem is to do
the opposite of what adult readers tend to do when they're reading for
comprehension:  i.e. slow down & focus on one word at a time.  I do the
latter when I want the right brain to keep quiet....  ;-)



JB>  ... I'm not a complete idiot. Several parts are
JB>  still missing.


            I got my act together, then forgot where I put it... [chuckle].
