Private - thanks everyone


From: John I Jones <jijones@ix.netcom.com>



Hi Michelle,

Welcome to the list and I am gland to see you posting.

I realize that you are relatively new to iris-talk so please 
take this as a gentle nudge, but I would appreciate it if you would use
the standard iris-talk subject tags, as described in the welcome
message, to preface the subject lines of the messages you send to the
list. For the people who use filters to sort their mail the subject tags
are critical. 

Remember, the format is the tag in ALL CAPS followed by a colon (:),
followed by your subject. (no space between the subject tag and the colon)

[Subject tag]:[your subject description]

The colon is a very important part of the tag. The standard tags are
below. You might want to print this for reference.

Thanks 

John
