In case anyone wonders why we continually get multiple answers, often 
saying the same thing, especially from me, it seems to be because there's 
a significant delay between someone else posting, I my reception of said 
post. E.g. although Jethro wrote this around 1730, I didn't get it until 
at least after 2033, because I wouldn't have bothered replying if I'd seen 
this first.

So, why the delay? It seems to be quite inconsistent. Is each posting
manually moderated perhaps?
