Only ONE person on this NG who responded to my entirely reasonable request
did so in a way that would be expected from an intelligent professional
person - and for their sake I will keep my opinion to myself.
If you find my posts irritating & annoying, you can always add me to your
blocked sender list (killfile) - but this might be a rather superfluous
action, since I now have much better things to do (like studying) than get
into a petty row with a bunch of ignorant louts who go around putting on
airs & graces and claiming to be intelligent professionals!
