Its out of frustration dont you see? When somebody tells you your opinion is way off and THEN procedes to tell you why with a bunch of stuff that isnt even true, you get mad. I dont think that I have to be any more polite or be perfect than anybody else is. I am human too. Yes there are better ways to make friends but I really am not here to make friends ( or enemies ), I am here to keep up on the world of Pentax and discuss pentax and photography issues. In a perfect world we would all get along perfectly all the time, but this aint a perfect world and nobodys perfect, including me. I have been called brash on more than one occasion but I can only be true to myself, that's the way it just is.... This will all blow over shortly Im sure, it always does.... jco

Though once again you've missed the point. It's not that your right, it's that you lack tact & manners. This is the part of my last post I'd like to reiterate: "You're correspondence technique, has left a bitter taste in many peoples mouths. Because of it, anything you say, no matter how technically accurate or valid, will simply be ignored & disregarded." Screaming "WRONG, WRONG, WRONG" at someone, even if they are, isn't a good way to make your point, and it will make you no friends. Cheers, Dave At 12:41 PM 19/12/2006, J. C.
