I kinda think notes is crappy. Why can't I post to multiple groups? Why do I have to read notes posted to multiple groups twice? I also don't like reading a base note because someone posted a response to a response ..... I'd much rather see the note the response was posted to than the base note. > notes has a lot more structure. not perfect, but.... I do have to agree that notes has its good points. And neither is perfect. I guess I just got used to "vn" and I'd like to go back to it. -- john -- aka John Dilley, [ihnp4] !hpfcla!jad. "My time coming any day, don't worry about me no"
