Re: an answer to one line postings

Why not , if you must write one liners, put it in the subject box followed 
by n/m? I agree that one liners can be annoying, but sometimes I only need 
one line to say what I want. I hope that I haven't been guilty of causing 
someone to get annoyed, I can't remember if I've written any one liners. Now 
can we get off this thread as I think that everybody agrees and it's using 
up time that I could more profitably use in trying to find a supplier of 
electrically controlled valves to operate my CO2 system.
BTW does anybody know of a cheap european supppliers of electrovalves?
