It is; I thought one could use eq here, but it seems equal is required. Which is not as good: a stream of unimportant messages could then proceed if the first of them happened to duplicate an important message. I guess we could stick an "unimportant" property on unimportant messages and then compare them with `equal-including-properties'. Davis -- This product is sold by volume, not by mass.
