How unfortunate, then, that you did not say so. Instead, you clearly issued an
insult at a person that, according to you, was not the target. In the future, try
and use complete information before flaming, and try to avoid the air of superiority
that you seek. The error and flame were both yours, so your attempt at appearing
"put upon" by my response is simply inappropriate. Read your own post, and you will
see what I mean...for all appearances, you were speaking to me, so try and lose the
above it all attitude that you take...it only makes you appear foolish and a flip
flop artist.
