Whoa,calm down :) I just got an email on this and now I understand a
bit better about how it is out there. In fact I told him that I
figured I'd be setting myself up for a mild barbiqueing.

I can certainly relate to that, I remember how good it felt to get the
proverbial warm/fuzzy feeling (no smart-a$$ remarks please) the first
time I actualy passed along some useful info.

Uhmm, hmmm, I admit I goofed. Would it help if I bought everyone a
virtual umbrella :).
Having not experienced too much by way of delays except for the
mysterious vanishing posts from my "non-filtering" server I had no
idea that things weren't as fast as I figured. Should have though,
having started with bbs surfing and with the connection probs on my
server I can definetly see where the net is probably much like a house
of cards in a huricane.
Snip------(dang, scissors got dull)
What do I get if I get an A? :)
Thanks for the enlightenment, fells good to actualy communicate
instead of throwing gas on someone elses fire for a change.
