Well, isn't that why technical forums exist in the first place....???? I got the award because MS deemed I was deserving of the award and because I was nominated by another MVP

>I think its just a reminder to remember who got you there.

Right, my technical contributions to the community. I think you got the relationship backwards here Erik....

That said, I consider my responsbibilities are to the community as a whole, not to any one individual member.... In other words, I don't feel a pressing need to worry about whether I ruffle the feathers of an individual member of the community. If he/she does'nt like my attitude, though shit. If I post something he/she can use, they will use it, regardless of my attitude....
