|Mr. Atkins:
|
|For your information, I'm the "someone by the name of" you're
|referring to.  It seems my name was ISO-8859-1-encoded so that my
|middle initial, the "a" with the acute accent in my last name
|("Beltr�n"), and the initials of my titles came out all wrong.  (It
|should have read: "Luis D. Beltr�n, M.S., P.P.L.")  Anyway, my actual
|intention (as a Netscape user, at least until the other day, and as a
|follower of this newsgroup for about a year and a half) was to praise
|Spunk1111's web site being elected as a Netscape Netcenter's Site of
|the Day.  (Incidentally, she replied with a thank-you note, which I
|appreciate very much.)
|
|As I write this, I'm changing my "From" header to avoid further
|confusion... that is, if I have to address this newsgroup in the
|future.
'----------------------------------

My Newsreader didn`t interpret the ISO-8859-1 encoding again so I`ve pasted
in the message from my Outlook Excrete (sorry, Outlook Express) which can
understand the encoding.

Nice to actually be able to see your name now... Free Agent's a cool
newsreader but it doesn`t even support MIME never mind ISOthingywotsit
encoding! :o)

Thanks for clearing that up...
