I think your comment is extremely rude to those of us on
this list.
It's an easy question so let me be lazy and ask. Is it that
you want
those of us on the list to do your job for you. Learning
and earning
come with certain responsibilities and if you are too lazy
to try and
solve your own problem - what make you think we want to
spoon feed you
the answer. HOW POMPUS.
