Oh, come on Bart, don't be such an old grouch ):o( !

That's not what I said at all, and I am pretty sure you know it, and are
just being provocative. Actually being deliberately provocative can
sometimes be an effective means of stimulating a good discussion, but there
is always the not inconsiderable risk that others may not realise what one
is doing, and just
assume a lack of intelligence, or an inability to follow clearly the flow of
what has been said. I'm sure that's not the case for you, so I have to
settle for the "deliberate provocation" theory. Personally, while I
recognise its occasional usefulness, I'm not much interested in this means
of communication and much prefer to keep things friendly and logical. With
this in mind, I don't see any point in rising to your "hook dressed in
feathers" in the future. :o)))

Orra Best,
