Re: Object type puzzle

As a very minor side note, just so you know, it looks like there's a
bug in the mailing list software. I went back to the original of my
previous post, and the ">" character which appears at the beginning of
the paragraph beginning "From what I can tell ..." was not in the
message that I sent, but was added by the mailing list, making it look
as if that paragraph might have been part of the quoted message to
which I was replying, instead of what it actually was (part of my own
reply).

Cheers,
Bob
