Hi all: I am sorry. I did not intend to blame Jim Grisanzio or (anybody from) the website community for this. The men who I meant must have been sitting in small dark rooms behind Sun?s firewall.
I would like to apologize for this complaint. Jim and website-community: Please continue your valuable enthusiastic work!!!))) Thanks, Martin 2010/3/15 ?????? ??????
