I can't find that discussion (didn't the lists
used to have a Search that looked at content, not
just subject lines, or am I thinking of another
list altogether?). I assume the problem is with
{pritu3}, the frame of reference, since I can't
imagine a problem with 1 or 2 ("right" is not an
NSM prime but I sure don't see off-hand how to
specify it in simpler terms). What was the issue
and how was it resolved (or can you give me a
Subject line to get into the thread)?
