Okay, maybe you ARE busy. I don't know how fast you type, but personally, I
could get the point across in about a minute. It's not that complicated. But if
you don't have a minute to spare in your entire day, fine. (Although I find this
hard to believe, because you seem to have more than enough time to argue with
me. Or is arguing with me a really high priority for you?)

As for part B, this still makes no sense. Just because I read and respond to a
post doesn't mean it was the correct response. In fact, you supposedly knew it
was the INcorrect response. So regardless of your disbelief at how stupid I am,
you still knew it was the incorrect response, and you did jack s*** about it.

No. Only Bruce responded, and he basically urged me not to delete the thread.

(I guess Bruce didn't know that posting private e-mail is wrong either, huh? Too
bad you didn't help us all out.)
