I wasn't commenting about the thread above in particular. I'm sure everyone (I definitely do) appreciate your work and if one of your patches gets dropped in favour of someone else's I'm sure it's nothing personal. It is just disappointing to see you get into fights with just about everyone about the simplest little differences. Sometimes it just does a lot more good if you show your disagreement in a better tone. --=20 Regards Abraham If I am elected, the concrete barriers around the WHITE HOUSE will be replaced by tasteful foam replicas of ANN MARGARET! __________________________________________________________ Abraham vd Merwe - 2d3D, Inc.
