Hi Eli

ok ... it did occur to me to cross-post due to the content
but didn't and didn't want to post to alt.test

this is a test of me posting from thunderbird direct to the
ng instead of logging into google (to see if they mess it up)

from the above figure i derived/re-created roughly what i
was originally searching for but couldn't find (or missed)
