I agree with you 100%. It seems as though there are people out there
who just sit back and criticize other people's work or cross
posting.

Belive it or not you can send mail to a person directly ( WOW!!), so
if by chance you find something irritating about a posting
send that person a mail. DON'T SEND YOUR GRIPES TO THE ENTIRE NET.
PLEASEEEE.
