I concur. One thing worth considering, is that posting a valid, on-point reply to a technical question (as opposed to posting a flamer) requires thought, research, and time. I know for a fact that Jeff, like myself, often replies on his employer's dime... during work hours. I also know that when I post to Yahoo lists on my employers dime, I wind up working late, so that I am not stealing from my employer. I suspect that Jeff, being a person of integrity, does the same. I tend to either ignore or killfile people who get off-point, or behave rudely on Yahoo Lists. -- http://www.robertwittig.com/ http://robertwittig.net/ http://robertwittig.org/ . ------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from this list, please email [email protected] & you will be removed.Yahoo!
