ummm... look... errr... ALL of the above is a post I made.
The rest you read (now snipped) is the ramblings of my fanboi.
This topic has been addressed many many times to the
point of being boring.. **and** the initial question is only made
because YOU are not using a newsreader.
Had you have been you would have figured it out within a few
reads of his dribble..and said nought about it.
The short version is... it is a sad Fact of today's Usenet that
some egos are finely tuned to creating trouble in newsgroups.
My fanboi is just one of that minority.
Green with jealousy, consumed daily by rage in reading
confronting posts, IT just cannot handle Usenet, so it attacks
folks who can.
For the long version go find and ***read*** ALL of this thread.
