Extended Notification Languages (Mike Pokraka)

[Mike Pokraka]

LOL, well the reason for my patience is simply that it goes so utterly and
horribly wrong that it makes me think it cannot be a bug. I've spent two
solid days on this one and everything I try brings a new round of
surprises - adding a certain entertainment value :-)

Also going the mod route but may still log this with OSS if I'm still on
site long enough.

Cheers,
Mike
