Ah, sorry, I thought there was a real problem that I had missed.

Just curious: did you _intentionally _ break the thread with your
original message? Sorry for reacting a bit harsh, but broken threads
are one of the most annoying things - I have quite a few threads in
my inbox that I intend to deal with when I have the time, and every
broken one makes life harder...

Well, I'm not a native English speaker, so I never really understood what
the big difference between things like "color" or "colour" was. If in doubt
I usually take the American version.
