I thought the sarcastic tone of my message was self-evident, Una ;-(

Yes, I agree arbitron results are misleading: but you posted them and I
simply quoted what was of interest to this group.  I read this group by

What was your intention in posting the arbitron ratings to
bionet.general and then demolishing my (light hearted) use of them?
