Greetings,
Thanks. There is a pretty raw effect on people's nerves from the mailing
list-style of communication. I have gotten an answer, which you
apparently haven't read; you are writing with frustration in your style,
like almost everybody else here. If this is what one has to put up with
everywhere one goes here, I might not make it... but apparently that is
what is wanted? It is definitely the case that I have never in my life
encountered a group of people less able to speak civilly... and you want
to translate the Bible?
Christopher
