Exclamation point! What an avant-garde position, William! Most folks whose positions are cast in concrete are more than willing to debate (aka proselytize.) > HTH > William Robb keith ---------------- My belief system is more grey than most people's b&w. It's extremely flexible. And that is my business. Okay, I am totally pissed, though probably I shouldn't be. I am dyslexic and having a written debate where I can truly express myself well, on the Internet, is simply beyond my linguistic skills. I have found this out in the past, and I refuse to indulge someone else's need to bash my logic anymore. Not in a written form where I have to strain and strain and never nail down what I really want to say. In person, where I am not required to WRITE, then I do much better. rg dug an old thread and threw it back at me -- I felt I was being semi-polite in responding at all. Make that of that what you will. Marnie aka Doe :-(
