seriously mate - whoever you are i know all about etiquette i just chose to
use it when i see fit.
which is not now. thanks for the advice though...
i didnt call the guy a prick and a cocksucker because he didnt answer my
original post
i called him a prick because he thinks he can police email lists and feels
its his job to...
in fact for exactly the same reason im going to call you a prick now.
prick.

apologise for what ?
