I'm sure I can find pages in Codex that affect far far fewer people. Why the objection ? I can't understand it - myself and others have been answering this question for two years now. If we didn't think this was worth doing do you think I'd be writing now ? I will continue to tell people who have problems what they really should be doing, and Codex can wander along it's merry deluded little way.
