Thanks, Bel!

I'm not really a complete newbie; I joined originally back in 2003 as ArnieP - I even wrote an article A1023166 that got on the FP at the time! I didn't revisit for a while (a few months) and for some reason my username/password kept being rejected and I was told there was no such user as ArnieP although, as I say, I was published! Anyway, eventually, I decided it was easier to rejoin under a new name. I'd been visiting the H2G2 site off and on the meantime, though.

Thanks again for the welcome, I'll wander about the site for a while now...

Thank you for the feedback, and welcome back

Oh, and what a great entry, thanks for posting the link
