This is getting more then ridiculous. Tell me what the hell you think
is broken rather then refer me to things that are just as vague as the
last 6 emails we've traded.
Right now all I see is you reacting to incorrect information with even
more incorrect information and taking every comment made by people and
turning it into an indictment without even so much as a shred of hard
data to back it up.
Tell me, specifically, what you believe is broken and where it is or stop
talking to me alltogether. I absolutely refuse to be a party to this sort
of shit any longer. I've attempted to get you to clarify what you believe
the problem to be FOUR times now. And *FOUR* times I haven't gotten jack.

:swap pager does.
