Just to clear that up, It had no relation to your post whatsoever - I  
never read it (it has been a thread that I haven't followed - perhaps  
I ignored it...). My comment was based on a general impression over  
the 6 months or so during which I've subscribed.

In conclusion - I certainly see Nick's point that just ignoring  
people accomplished little as well, and agree that a well put remark  
accomplishes much more....

I admit that I can't remember the wording of the welcome mail, but  
perhaps it should be stressed (if not already the case) that the list  
is NOT tech support from Stata Corp but voluntary people using  
'spare' time.

Best regards,
Steffen
