OK sorry have to respond to Mark...couldn't get his offlist address Mark...read my posts man...I said I don't care about OT posts and do delete them (ya try reading the posts yourself) ;-)
My complaint is that posts about MM have been killed before. Judith actually posted saying this very thing....a few posts later she thanks MM....do ya see it...do ya see the double standard ;-) OK..now I'm really done (and mabye Mark will read my posts in full before going off again) Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.
