Let me kick in here, don't do that to eachother, you are both grown up (i hope) so show that to the community. Oliver's point is clear , though perhaps a bit too hard in his words and Andrew is also clear and perhaps acting a bit childish (in this email) If you think "I dont have much with this answer" then just think, thanks for the input, i will look further. If everyone is going to do this, we have a kindergarten class real soon..
