Apologies. Not meant to bite anyone's head off, nor to be rude or
disdainful.
I had a bad weekend - 6 power failures over 4 days that shut down my
server, storms that knocked out comm lines, telco can't tell me when I
can get broadband connected to our new building..... Doesn't justify
taking it out on someone who posted.
Anyway, I agree - and my post was pretty snippety. Always seems that
way afterwards, doesn't it?
