Sorry for doing whatever it was I did (or failed to do). Meant no harm.
It wasn't an embedded request. T'was only a wish expressed (is there any
difference?). I've been usenetting before the WWW was even online. That
said, I have yet to get "into" the NZB's. Like some, I just haven't kept
up with any of the secrets and hidden travails of nzb usage. I was only
expressing the hope that some time in the near future, "Make Me" might be
reposted again. The one time I've seen it posted, it was kind of (gulp)
dorked. The pars couldn't fix the problems incurred. Made a help request
that went unseen. (sniff, sniff ;) oh, woe is me! whine, whine, whine)
Sorry for any consternation. That said, may I express a wish? Hope to
one day see a repost here or in a repost group, one of Lee Child's
books! ;) the title is "M*** M*" ;) See! I'm not the pushy type. ;)
All youse guise are great! Thanks for all your efforts!
