I am not going to post ANYTHING to net.wanted.sources, less you can show me that there is an equal base of people reading that news group. I don't, so allready you have lost. The next person who sends me a rude message from this news group will be written out of my will! And as for another news group for the LESS EDUCATED folk out there who are more apt to be rude in such cases, I think this is a great idea, a sort of playpen for the kiddies. The perhaps the adults can get something useful done. Reply to this with a flame, and I will post it directly to the great bit bucket in the sky, (without reading it), reply to me as you should reply to any user of this news group, or any other news group, and I will reply the same. Lets have some manners back to the net, eh? Yours In FireFighting, -- Shawn Uucp: mit-eddie!shawn Arpa: Shawn at Mit-Mc
