The OP is referring to the three numbers often shown following somebody's signature, such as 210/170/165 or something along those lines. Not at the top of the message, and not the number symbol, but actual numbers. Dick Stephens |

The OP is referring to the three numbers often shown following somebody's signature, such as I understand that, and know what the numbers are about. The reply post said to look for the "daily FAQ post". I've never seen one, and scanning back over several days of posts in my newsreader, I can't find one. Someone who replied did post the url for FAQ, but I've never seen the "daily post" that the person mentioned. Sas --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

I've gone back through several days of posts and can't find a post with that header, which makes me wonder what all I'm missing with this newsreader. You're welcome. Not all news servers get all posts and some days are better or worse than others but if you're concerned that you may be missing a lot you can go to Google Groups and compare what you see in your newsreader to what's archived for a few days. http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search Others may be able to suggest alternate news services that you can sign up with. |

Please pardon a newbie question, but what is this that I see at the bottom
of so many posts? ###/###/### I wondered that too. I think it's weights in pounds, referring to: Original/Current/Target For fun (!) we could get silly with that sort of thing and go for a whole geek-code-like string. Here's mine: 248/241(246.3)/167/68/39/m/3/1 Original/Current(optional current ten-day rolling average)/Target/Height-in-inches/age/gender/Days-on-diet/Number-times-I've-t ried-low-carbing (Clearly I usually spend too much time eating and now am getting bored...) slr -- http://atkinsandme.blogspot.com |
