I won't bite your head off, or anyone else's. I'm sorry if a prior post on this NG came across that way. That wasn't my intent. > I also feel you are going to keep top-replying unless someone tells you > not to do so quit complaining and get to your points, design > recommendations, ideas etc.. I top-posted because what I had to say had very little to do with the message I replied to. Many of my posts lately have aimed at trying to encourage collaboration. Maybe I'm going about it the wrong way. I know I'm a nobody, but I'm still trying in my own way to have a positive impact on D. So far, I think I'm just pissing people off.
