Trying to understand your problem.  But if it is related to this - since
this was a post reply to
http://www.jlaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=631491687 and you did not
quote, then the text of the very 1st post of that thread -
http://www.jlaforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=657979739#657979739 should have
been automatically quoted when it went out to usenet and the reference
message ID should have been the same (the very 1st post of that thread)

Yes, since this is a revision and updated version of my poem I didn't
want or need to quote the old, inferior version of the poem.
HTH and HAND.
