Stan,

Mal was not trying to put you down for what you wrote.
He was (fairly impolitely) pointing out that you started
a new thread where replying to the initial thread would
have been appropriate.

In fact you've just done it again. For many of us reading
r.a.s this is damn irritating because it breaks up
what should be a single debate into separate threads.
You're not the worst offender on here mind.

Regards,

Andrew Warbrick (replying to the third thread on a
subject that SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN ONE THREAD).

Come off it cobber !

If you wish to attempt a public put-down, carefully
read what is written, understand it, digest it, sleep
on it and then feel free to
make an informed response.

You have not achieved any of these parameters.

Reproducing the original in your 'reply',
as if the posting was read & understood, cuts no ice
whatsoever.

As far as you are concerned, this subject is now closed.


Stan,
