Having been up most of the night wrasslin' a 'Plug & Pray'
sound card/software and rising after a mere three-hours
of sleep, I found m'self in grumpy-geezer mode as I got
into today's List - copying, pasting and posting. Y'know -
the "God, how do I end this thread?", mode.

The inestimable Jerome, has I think, brought this one
home.....

End of thread - please!
