>I never said you did. I said that it was my feeling that the underlying reason for this was FUD. One more thing, I never say anything on-line that I wouldn't say to someone face to face, This is both in a reply to a post or referencing another post. In short, I think that to do otherwise is cowardice. It's real easy to talk to someone separated by hundreds of miles and say nasty things. It's quite another to say thing to someone directly. You won't find me backing down from this.

Oh, OK, I'll bite - Jim and Jess are clearly publicists for Elmer. I think you'll find FUD and a fundamental unwillingness to try new technologies to lie behind the resistance.
