I understand what you're trying to say, but trust me, if you've been around here for a long time, like Dann has, and you've been a moderator, like Dann has, then you'd know why he said what he did. As a Canadian who has also been both, I certainly laughed when I read his post (and the subseqeunt thread between him and "Cheaters Rep"). For those that don't meet this criteria, I'll just say that that there's a certain Canadian who has earned themself a certain notoriety around here over the years, and leave it at that. Dave
