Your history post was fairly interesting, but I have two complaints. First and most important, you should consider the negative aesthetics, unreadability, and irritation of right justified, fixed-width fonts when making future posts. Actually, the second is not a complaint so much as a query: what was the lesson you spoke of twice to learn from this historical tidbit? Were you making a cynical comment on a possible advantage of trying to make a buck on an invention as opposed to giving it to educational institutions with repect to how popular your ideas might become? Unless I missed it, I think you forgot to point out the lesson to learn. Maybe I'm looking too closely? Bill
