Dan, you are absolutely right. My apologies for not being a good citizen.
I am causing everyone to suffer from supersized emails and an html habit I
can't seem to kick. I swear, I should just use Celeste instead of Outlook.
I am trying plain text again for this message.
We are already over a 1000 this month again. It must be all the discussion
about MS yanking the EMBED tag. :) That plus the message size can be
overwhelming.
[On Linda: I would point out that I get about 200k matches a second, which
may be slow and too general for a Scheduler. I think that a type restricted
Tuple might increase match performance. I will be able to post my work by
Monday]
