I'm sorry, but is anyone else annoyed by people who attempt to use IRC jargon on mailing lists? For example, substituting "u" for "you". Oddly enough, I'm seeing this primarily in foreign language posters, not in native English speakers. It's often accompanied by English so broken I don't even bother trying to decypher it, and sometimes an *attitude* (after which, I blacklist the poster). Am I the only one? It's okay if I am. Just wondering. PaulPaul: u r not the only 1. I h8 that 2! l8er :) tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
