No offense to you, Ray, but I have noticed, and accept, a lot of sloppy
spelling and word usage in this and other groups with which I correspond.  I
don't have a problem with this unless the meaning is obscured, which brings
me to my question - "What the hell is unhinded?".

Again, no offense intended.
