Where do you get off, Kevin ?

There was every reason to state that the books are identical (see my other post
in this thread). Given the fact that the byte-by-byte comparison does not add
up, does not give you the right to wash up Harald. For all I know he has more
integrity in his toe than you can ever bring to bear. I haven't seen any fruit
of your investigations here. What have you done to clear this mess up ? All I
see is a triggerhappy moralist. Well... I can play that game too.
