Perhaps my response was harsh. But when I see references like the one bellow, I
start to flame.

If the above was meant as a harmless joke, I appologize for my remarks. It looked,
however, like the guy has tried to position himself above this "other graduate
student" who initiated the thread. I was simply trying to vindicate him. It is
not the original question that drew my criticizm, but, rather, the way the answer
was provided i.e. in a blatantly tactless and discrespectfull manner. Moreover,
I want to emphasize the importance of being able to ask questions, reagardless
of how "stupid" they may seem, in this forum. As to whether or not I am making
any claims ..... I did not think so. I only think that my comments were
technically correct, although offensive, yours, however, " ... he kept his post
to 80 chars/line while you ..." have no identifiable technical content at all.
Enough Said.
