Hiya Bob, personally I cant help but to thank anyone that helps me. Its something

in the goodness

of human nature. However It might not be a great idea to personally thank everone

who replies, Maybe

a "Thanks to all" in the subject header would be enough.


Also if someone personally told me that "thank you were inappropriate",  I would

personally tell them to "F_K off".

Of course I would then follow that with a "Thank you".
