Chad, it is common sense thinking like that, that will inevitable get you chastised. By the way, did you notice I directed a polite, one sentence directive towards Odhiambo. Suddenly, every buttinsky crawls out of the woodwork, sans any factual input on my original post and hijacks this thread championing their own views on replying to posts. I have no problem with that as long as they start a new thread, being sure to CC each other and thereby waste their time discussing it among themselves. To hijack another thread displays no only their lack of basic posting etiquette, but their narcissism. It is a shame when individuals like, but not limited to, Maciej Milewski, Chuck Swiger, Bryan H. and even Odhiambo contribute useful information only to be over shadowed by those other morons. Absolutely pathetic. I was going to CC all those who argued so feverishly in favor of the protocol, but then common sense and plain decency got the better of me. -- Carmel ✌ carmel_ny@hotmail.com Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
