It is really funny because these same people are saying "gee, why don't any companies ever post on the internet?" then when someone like yourself does they take this attitude like they know all, can say all, and generally treat them like shit. I do think that you may have wanted to do a little more research before you posted, but its to late now. Just ignore the people who like to flame (I guess they have to make themselves feel better somehow) and just worry about the people who can have a civilized conversation. The internet seems to have lost that friendly feeling that it had not even two years ago :-( Kevin Kramer
