2 questions:

1.  Why have you flooded this news group with three identical copies of 
a question under three different subject?  This is a (mild) bit of abuse 
of the newsgroup.  One copy with a reasonable subject line is enough.

2.  Haven't I answered this question for you often enough already?   Was 
my answer not clear enough, or has the problem again changed slightly 
enough to require a new answer?   Having solved 3 or 4 versions of this 
problem for you already, I'm wondering why I'm seeing it posed yet one 
more time.   If this is *exactly* the same problem I solved once already 
(and I believe it is), why are we seeing it again, and if it is not the 
*exact* same problem,  why are we seeing so many similar version of 
it?   It's starting to feel like a slight abuse of my time to see this 
problem on the newsgroup again.
