I was on Jim's system the other day, and here is what I figure:  The line 
isn't repeated.  However, Max is "appending" new lines to the IPC file. (e.g. 
each time the other person entered a line, I received that last few lines + 
the new one).
After a few "repeated" lines, it starts over again.
  Perhaps NT is screwing up the delete calls?
Take care,
Anthony
