Apologies for adding to this thread. - I can't help but note
the formula of being 'offended' and then assuming a superior
stance from which to be abusive. - It's a text book example.
Though I wonder at the existance of any replies, (including
my own) - I've learned by you and Chris and Luke - that I'm
in good company. - Thanks! - Here it comes again - ready? ->
