Thanks for replying Raymond! I was about to say the same thing :)
Great minds think alike uh?

Very well said and very true indeed. Control me and I'll run a 
remote-controller on you :)

Rules are meant to be broken anyways :P

Are you nuts!!! We are doing this as a hobby and you wanna control and 
apply disciplinary actions on us? Get a life! Behaved baby behaved! 
Heehehehhe... sounded serious yeah?

And pls don't pick on my little dear Amnesia. He is like a little 
brother to me whom is soooo young and learning at incredibly 
faaaassstt speeds!!! I am also learning from him and vice-versa and he 
is sooo helpful and an asset to SLP. We all learn from mistakes as 
such, pls learn to forgive and forget.

I am not getting mad at anyone but just wanna make some issues clear 
:)
