Hi, all,

Please note - I found this bug as follows:
	
	- I posted tests to the list and checked the archives
	- that included trying Karl’s post, which failed
	- so I did a binary search to find out WHERE his post failed
	- at which point I found the specific word involved

This required no special access or privilege. 

I.e., consider this an invitation to debug things on your end in the future, esp. before posting for help from the “list admin”.

Joe
