Hi, Jim..

Thanks for the suggestion, Jim.  I don't have pointing software
and don't really have a great enough need for it to justify installation
and familiarizing myself with it, just for one one echo, but thanks
again for the suggestion.

No, I certainly did not intend any offense.  Actually I was merely
acknowledging the fact that a few users of this echo have suggested
the discussion of Juno was, in fact, non-topical.  Not that I agree,
however.   I cut my on-line teeth, as it were, on FidoNet, and am
still a firm supporter (being co-SysOp on this system for about 10 yrs)
of FNet.  But when I see a discussion of a specific (Internet) program
I try and point folks to all alternate venues of information.
