It wasn't obviously personal as I kept it generally worded and allowed exceptions for X in default (just not in boot), but I could have cushioned it with an explicit disclaimer to the effect that it was /not/ targeted at anyone specifically and was simply my opinion. IOW, maybe my post didn't go to the personal attack degree his did, but I did sort of ask for it as it could have been worded better even if saying the same thing, and could/should really learn something from the results of the exchange as well. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
