It it didn't to me, either. And I deal with this stuff (iSCSI, snapshots,
loopback images, NAS, SAN, etc.) on a pretty regular basis.

I gotta say, I hope Saturn takes what you wrote to heart. I had told
myself I was certainly not going to reply to a post from him on this
thread again, and possibly never reply to *any* of his threads ever again.

*certainly* thinking but I would have done it with a slightly more...
aggressive tone.
