I'm relatively new here. I read his comment differently. I read it that
before, all you got was being pointed to a website but now you actually
receive help. I, certainly, have received a lot of help hete.

Exactly.

Actually, I had a couple of things going on:

1) I typed "concur" and the scene in "Catch Me If You Can" (Leo D and T
Hanks) where Leo's character is being a doctor and goes "Do you concur!"
over and over popped in my head.

2) I looked up "concur" just, well, just because I could

3) "Aw fuck it" I said and cut-n-pasted concur def into the post. No real
reason at all.

So there you go.

Re: This newsgroup

Right on. That rocks! I have a boss that says concur a lot and he uses
the word when he should not. I guess it struck a nerve...thanks for not
getting upset. I can appreciate your post much more now :)
