Yes, but that's not the point i wanted to make.
Me thinks "no one" was too absolute.
Place the word "almost" before it, and then you are very right.
In the old days almost every one, except beginners, did what they should
do, namely first read all the msgs, and then start answering the unanswered
points in these.

That process of explaining such skills should take place now and than to
keep the newcomers (and some old ones) alert.
A nice job for a toastmaster ;-).

Good Luck with GoldEd.
I do not need gold to be lucky, it is in the smaller things ;-).

Henri.
