You go Howard. Obviously the only thing this jerk wants to is irritate
people. There has got to be a way to ban people like this. Either way,
it's nice when someone puts them in their place as you just did. And if you
notice, ABC doesn't want to give his/her real name or e-mail address
(although [EMAIL PROTECTED] may be valid, the name ABC is NOT) because he/she
hasn't got the guts to put their real name next to their sharp comments. I
have absolutely no respect for anyone who hides behind anonymity as such.
