>> Parenthetically, I wonder why you flew into such a towering dudgeon over things which are really trivial. What I said - and I think it's true - you, personally, live in New Zealand, not the United States, and are not in harm's way. Actually, what you said was, "Mq's in New Zealand, far from harm's way. Easy to feel superior when it's not your rear end on the line." which connotes something far different and could even be misinterpreted as intentionally provocative by a red blooded American or Kiwi. I've gained a high regard for Mq's intellect, inquisitiveness, and ability to compose killer rants from our long association on the qcom threads, and would be bitterly disappointed if he were accidentally goaded to the point where his responses got him on FaultLines s#!t list. Just hoped that if you kept in mind that the Kiwis corrupt the English language (and use apostrophes) in a different manner than we do, you might cut him some slack. Back to lurking. uf
