So when you say: > If I'd written a book you're illiterate > I would expect Your expectations clearly are tantamount to garbage. > Glad to be able to fix a problem quickly. Well I did't do it. You didn't do it. There should be no "glad" smile off our face. As for your last paragraph, "donald"/ "kalamazoo"/"Ichikaboo/bibbitybobbityboo" you should maybe consider lessons in how not to be an ass, or... .how to be more human. Best, Ehud PS "My head blew off @ hotmail.com" --- how about "I'm a freakin' idiot who has contributed nothing and is not only illiterate but can't figure out what to do." Sucks to be you. Kalamazoo. Your rhyme. Your zoo. _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list Bcm43xx-dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
