You are saying that Melvn Schwartz is a fake person? You are saying that the problem he is having is a fake problem? You are saying that Melvin and his problem are real, but other support complaints are faked? If you are going to bring this up in public, let's pound it out in public rather than wanzy-ass around it. He sounds real enough to me. If I was the one with the problem, I would have sent an email to Ed, but other people may choose to get annoyed in public. There's a long tradition of this. When I worked at Microsoft, someone found a worm in their salad at the local Thai restaurant, and sent an email about it that made it to about ten thousand people in an hour or two. bruce
