How is it > that your statement does not apply to you Am I, I don't get that at all from my statement. I'm questioning his authority to tell others what they can and can't post. English can be a tricky language. What I will not tolerate however is the 'ganging up' on unsuspecting users. I can take it, in fact I find the discourse exhilarating, others may be more badly affected. If you think that sort of behaviour is acceptable then I'm afraid you are part of the problem. I'm trying to put a name to this behaviour. When I do I'll make it quite clear where I stand. (Yet again) lipska -- Lipska the KatŠ: Troll hunter, sandbox destroyer and farscape dreamer of Aeryn Sun
