Well yes it was a pissing match. But I'm not mad a Adam because he wouldn't back down. In fact I learned a few things from him. I just don't agree that they're the whole reason for the high ISO improvements. WW has managed to piss me off enough that he's back in my Kill file with Dobo, Rubinstine(sp), (just in case they ever raise their heads again, and a couple of others who shall remain nameless, because I can't refrain from arguing with them, not because they're bad people). William is mostly just nasty, and revels in it.
