Dave,

That's wonderful. I thank you, and I'm sure the rest of the community does
as well.

I have one request: could you strip off the [ruby-talk:NNNN] part of the
subject? Though it appears in the mailing lists, it didn't appear on the
news groups. It really screws up threading.

Thanks again for restoring comp.lang.ruby to full health.

Jim
