But if u feel I > did so, I sincerely apologize, that was not my intention. I know why The vertical bar with a dot at the bottom is called an exclamation point! When you use it (Like this!!!) it makes what you type very loud! While that might be fun, it makes it difficult for other people to understand your tone!!! Are you angry? Sad?? Or just exited?!?? See what I mean???!? Seriously, written communication is hard. Just like with verbal communication, calmly explaining a situation and nicely asking for help is more likely to get results than using chat room jargon and incomplete sentences. Remember that many of us are old enough to have been tought to read and write on paper, and honestly don't speak the same written language. Sticking to standard English will make it much easier for folks like me to understand U. :) Andy ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
