Bill, I think you need to get a grip! Did you ever read "The Caine Mutiny". A certain captain Queeg comes to mind. I must have spelled something wrong there, it has been years. Anyway, my point is that you are searching the ship for a key that doesn't exist because it worked for you in the past. In other words, what you think you see in VLNC, is what you saw in a past success. This is not the case here, and it will be a very expensive lesson.

Bill--I am guilty of 'greasy' too.
I used the term in a post I made on the Flame thread.

For the life of me, I wasn't being racist, not only that the term was in reference to whites (my own race).
You can haul me off and drive a politically correct stake through my heart but I just viewed it as an insult. Not only that Mama Bear posted it on Anthony @ Pacific's thread one of the most read on SI and no one threw the label at me.
I guess we just lacked someone alert enough.
All the Best
