 Amusing really... Initial line was: "Are you writing all this because you
 didn't get chosen as Rebel Tiger II Tester...?" Remark: "I didn't mean to
 imply that you're writing out of bitterness, though it may read as such :o).


 "Are you writing this because you have nothing else to do? I don't mean to
 imply that you are writing out of non-employment, though it may read
 as such :o)."  Are these types of arguments really okey for you? Surely
 you can do better than this?!

 Thanks
