As your message demonstrates, Marco, preservation of context is 
important.  Strip away the context and it is impossible for the reader 
to discern the substance of the original thread which made it clear that 
the fedora-list archive search engine could not be relied upon to find 
material on any topic regardless of  any possible redundancy in message 
content.  It can find ONE, much less 50 or 100!

Your problem apparently has more to do with personal issues than with 
substance.  If you have a problem with me, find the balls to address me 
directly with the issue.
