Neal, I disagree on this one. No one here has any duty to answer any post. Period. But if one decides to answer, I agree its best to maintain some politeness. That doesn´t mean saying yes and amen to everything, but for me it means to stay away from attacking a person. Always have respect for another person. Even, well especially if you disaggree. Thats what I try to live to (and sometimes likely also fail to live to). -- Martin 'Helios' Steigerwald - http://www.Lichtvoll.de GPG: 03B0 0D6C 0040 0710 4AFA B82F 991B EAAC A599 84C7 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
