I will second that. Frans well done, brilliantly said.

Even though I didn't answer to either threads, on/off topic!

Mr. Bouma,

You are completely correct. As I am one of the ones who replied, not to the
question at hand, but to the tone of an answer, I would like to offer my
apologies to the ENTIRE group. In the future, I will limit my posts to
questions, and (if I get a whole lot smarter) answers.

Again, my apologies.

Chris Snyder

I'd like to add that of all the people participating in this thread, a very
low number actually tried to answer the question(s). (2 or 3 to my
knowledge)

You all may get offended when someone is less 'diplimatically correct' with
saying things, fact is that taking time to answer off-topic issues but not
taking time to answer the ON-TOPIC issue (the start of the thread) is pretty
erm... let's say it bluntly: wrong.

IF you all get so offended because someone calls your president a retard or
worse, and you take the time to reply to THAT, please, also take the time to
answer the question at hand. After all this IS a Q/A list, not a list where
someone should be interested in your political motives, fav. color or on
which grounds someone gets kicked out of his lazy chair.

Thank you.

        Frans.
