No Theo, I've never asked anyone here to write something for me. I tend to do
my own coding. When I saw you were in trouble back then I simply offered to
see if I could help because I like your product. I know, it was ignorant of
me. I should have known better.
And you're quite right these threads have really not done anything for anyone,
except maybe give some a bit more insight into human follyness.

Yes Travers, I can tell you're experienced in life. I'm glad you took the
opportunity to share your insights with me and my silly society's morals.

Yes, I've since realized how futile and stupid it was of me to have such an
idea. I promise it won't happen again. It's probably a good bet that these
threads have made a few people realize some of their futilities too. So it's
sort of like a blessing in disguise. I'm sure you will not hear anything on
the subject for a good while now after getting it all out in the open.
