I seem to remember to have helped you a few times, so I think a "you're welcome" is in its place.
We have something in common, you and I, namely the ability to be angry/cranky/difficult, choose your word, in periods, and the completely opposite in the next moment. I have asked people to p** off in one minute in one thread or when discussing one subject, and at the same time helped the same person in another thread or on another subject. I have a short fuse, but also a very little and shortlived "blast". It only shows that we're humans, :-)

>For what? For all the help I've received in the past decade from developers who are way better at what they do than I am. I've had countless contracts, projects and just maintenance on code that is better because of all those here who have helped with my seemingly endless number of questions. I'm not always the cranky persona that many of you have come to know and tolerate. Normally I'm a laughing, reasonably happy guy. The anonymity of the online community allows us to be whatever we want, and I haven't always chosen to show the nice one. Sorry about that. Really. Not sure if it will be any better in the future, but regardless, I am very grateful to anyone who has helped in the past. I could not do what I do without it. Well, maybe I could, but it would take much longer.
