>And yes, if Jim or Ed did the same thing, not only would I do the same thing, they are professional enough to expect that the possibility of a follow-up question might be asked.

Yes, but there are ways of asking questions and doubtless, the approach to these Gentlemen would be somewhat different.

>Look beyond the personal detest that you may have for me and focus on the merits of the issue. Am I PITA? Perhaps.

For the record, I have no personal detest for you whatsoever. This your paranoia <s>

>I find it interesting that while you attacked me personally, you did not attack the merits of the question.

I have not responded on the technical basis of the question, its merits or lack thereof. It is simply a matter of approach. I don't know Craig Berntson from Adam. However, it is clear you have little or no respect for him from the tone and frequency of your critique of his various offerings in this forum.

>No worries. I am used to this sort of treatment.

You don't say.
