I responded as strongly as I could, but there was no reason for him to call me a liar. I value integrity more highly than ANY programming skill. Please try to convince him to publically retract his statement. I did respond very aggressively, but it was deserved. If his posting was forged, I would publically apologize to him, but I have NO REASON to suspect that. The flamewar had settled down, and this thing came out of the blue. I know that he is young, but this is ridiculous. Thanks John
