Sorry Vam, I think you are stalling here. My questions to you have not been hard to figure out, I know I am dyslexic, but I am not stupid, I can't spell and my hand writing is, I can garentee you the worst you will see, but I do comprehend the English language, I do know how to write, I have phrased my questions in a way that there can be no misunderstandings between us.
You sir know exactly what page I am on, I aksed you a direct question, you answered, and I wanted double check that answer. Now when I attempt to do that, you give me rubbish about nails and hammers and advise me to go away and think a bit more. I smell evasion Vam, however because I am a nice chap, I'll ask for that clarifcation again. Do you belive that if you go without water for long enough you will NOT fall into unconciousness? Now that is a very straight forward question, please do answer it. On 10 Sep, 12:32, Vam <[email protected]> wrote: > It seems you are lost, Lee ! Give yourself time, and perhaps some > more.
