Thanks for the response, Rick.
Any references? I tried Googling for 'Frustrated Join' and 'Frustrated Outer
Join' and all I came up with were requests for people who were frustrated by
something or other to join some advocacy group <g>. Not the same thing.
And, of course, references to some of Allen Browne's post to these news
groups, which were the source of my question.
Once again, thanks!
