Freaky, what's odd is that my newsreader (OE) is only set to
msnews.microsoft.com so it shouldn't have cross posted at all as I've no
connection to the other groups. But now, if nothing else, I know what the
standard is for cruising sail cloth. I'm not exactly sure when I'll be able
to use that knowledge, maybe on a trivia game someday, but I'm grateful for
the learning. :)
