Theos-Talk Archives (October 2000 Message tt00074)

Here it is again. I have no idea why it does not keep it on one line 
and unbroken when it is pasted in to this message board. If it
doesn't 
work this time, I won't try again. Maybe the moderator or someone
else 
can figure it out. Anyway, you can just copy it from the two lines
and 
type in the whole thing in the URL web-address Location box:
