F77? I didn't know the function keys went that high. Joel, you must
have a lot of keys on that new laptop, grin. Sorry, couldn't resist.

Seriously though, it pays to read through your message at least once
before sending. Not only can you catch spelling errors, but you can
change wording before it goes out to the masses. Granted, I may seem
like a stickler on this, but I like to write well. Besides, in this
age of electronic communication, you never know where that message
full of errors will end up, or by whom it will be read, such as by a
future employer.
