     Wrong in the Piel -- as in the above example --  where conjugations
    of verbs whose first letter is a guttural are regular. 
   
    The only exception is in the Tsereh under the Mem of  the 
  'Bakhlam' verbal nouns.

I have been using my handle "Brak" for all my online correspondence for 
over 14 years.
The reasons for this I have expressed before when I first join the group 
and the issue was made about me signing my messages with my handles as 
opposed to my real name - so I won't both going around in that circle.
So needless to say, I will not alter my email account settings

I'm sure many people on this forum can understand the desire not to 
change how they have been doing things - even at the expense of making 
things more simple and less confusing.

When I first joined the forum I express the confusion and hassle of how 
the messages are handle in regards to having to click on "reply all" 
instead of just "reply" for if you click on "reply" your reply only goes 
to the person who replied previously instead to the forum itself. This 
also causes multiple messages to be sent and received. So when someone 
replies to my post I get two copies. When I express this I was told that 
even though it should be changed it wouldn't be because there are people 
on the forum who have been doing it this way for years. And trust me, my 
messages having my handle appear is far less confusing and a hassle then 
having to remember to click "reply all" and getting multiple copies of 
messages in your inbox.
But again for all the details on this look in the archives as it was 
throughly discussed as well.

So can we please spend more time on the questions I raise in my messages 
and responses rather than my Mozilla settings?

behave."
