that gives answers, not web links.

Chris, please just post the item number for these
things or use
TinyURL or the like for the links. The darned
eBay links wrap
several lines in my email reader and require me
to
dig the number out
manually.
... and where possible say in the message what the
item is (sounds like that
wasn't possible in this case!) rather than just
posting a "look at this" link.
I rarely waste the CPU cycles to fire up a browser
unless I have some idea of
what I'm going to be looking at!
p.s. I think most modern-ish apps will make sense of
URLs between <>
characters and not wrap them across multiple lines;
I think it is some
standard or other, but there's no guarantee that
*everything* from the last
ten years will handle it :-)
