What I'm missing is a critique of what people who don't already => know what's going on would like explained better.) isn't this the constant tech (user) problem? when was the last time you heard a user ask The Right Question[tm]? kind of a chicken/egg thing; the techie can't read the user's mind and the user doesn't know how to formulate his questionsi/comments. (FWIW, i think the user's guide does a pretty good job at reading minds although there should always be room for improvment of course). sorry, my comments probably weren't very helpful. :( just was thinking a little about the larger problem. --Jo
