I remain impressed. You have taken BS to heights I can scarcely dream
of. You should be a grant-writer... a good one can make the big bucks
writing like that! Oh yeah, I added the f'ing <OT>. I like the old
Caldera <TID> "Thread is deteriorating". I always re-translated that in
my head as "Thread is deleterious"  

Moby Thesaurus words for "deleterious":
   baleful, baneful, corroding, corrosive, corrupting, corruptive,
   counterproductive, damaging, deadly, destroying, destructive,
   detrimental, disadvantageous, disserviceable, distressing, harmful,
   hurtful, injurious, lethal, malefic, malevolent, malign, malignant,
   mischievous, noisome, noxious, ominous, pernicious, poisonous,
   prejudicial, ruining, ruinous, scatheful, toxic, unadvantageous,
   unfavorable, unprofitable, unrewarding, useless, venenate,
   veneniferous, venenous, venomous, vicious, virulent, worthless
   

Don't you think at least more than a couple fit, making <TID> a better
choice?? <grins> Ric
