Oh, I remember it all right... and then there was the page with the left-hand
frame, before the one with the top one... huh... that sure was a long time ago!

<smile> true, true. It would be *so* nice to be able to have, say, Jerusalem
on a whole seperate plane - so much bloodshed would be spared... but that's
for o-t.debate ;-). And it would be quite nice for me to be able to jump from
one plane to another, I'd say... but again that's not for this forum ;-).

Yeah... I remember some headaches around the time of the name-wars, and even a

Yep. Otherwise, what's the point in CW anyway?... We want to have fun here, so
we gotta work together a bit.

Yeah. Some of these are great ideas that can come in *addition* to, instead of
*replacing*, the current system.

Yeah- no point in worrying *too* much. ;-)
