We're being chastised for choosing to monitor this list and help people when we can rather than working to solve world hunger?

Then fscking call PSS. If you can't be bothered to ask a properly phrased technical question then you have no right to complain about the quality of the answer you receive. In fact I think people were quite restrained in their responses to your pathetic inquiry. > So..

Sander Van But-sit-still-nothing-better-2-do-zer "Get a > job were you earn your living...!! - and don't clog peoples > mail with Crap" Now I don't have a complete archive imported yet, but in reviewing Sander's posting history that I do have and comparing it to yours I have to conclude that you inadvertently substituted "Sander Van-$foo-zer" for "Adrian Van-I'm-a-lazy-shaved-monkey-who-is-incapable-of-forming-an-intelligent-ques tion-den". Next thing we know you'll be asking what the best freaking fax software is.
