Someone should at least have the Good Manners
to thank you for your post, so please accept mine.
The read (yesterday) diverted the rocket I had aimed
fair and square at the bowels of the OP.
I am _very experienced_ at interpretation of 't o n e'
from** that** 't y p e'.
I had the mortars all set to "belt feed"<bfg>
As you see today (AEST) the OP has "phucked off",
just as I predicted yesterday.
Wasted your time and, by proxy, mine.
I (for one) have lost count of the many instances of
such lameness in "trolling" by sad individuals as the
OP.
Not a criticism any way, so please do not read that
when I say to you.. choose your 'newbies' more
carefully lest you waste pooter time attending persons
of no self-worth or intention to gain any in "doing the
right thing" and posting so the NG thrives.
.. mind how you go :-)
