 AI> Yep, I don't know why that happens but Mystic users don't try to post 
using

the one you replied to wa san original... no ANSI in an existing message to get 
in the way... the worst part is the homing of the cursor to the top left corner 
of the screen and then just writing over whatever is there...

 AI> I don't think they know when this happens. It happens when they edit

 AI> without their knowlwdge.

whatever it is, it is annoying and painful to deal with... i had to start over
several times when i replied to one in the BINKD echo because things were just
whack... i dunno and my painfully pinched nerves in my neck are making me quite 
the grumpy fellow after wearing my neck brace for three days now with no relief 
:( :( :(
