You are posting to a group, anyone can answer. I don't see him speaking for someone else. Charles has been excellent in this group, and Daniel explicitly said "with respect."

Most of us who have been here for a while agree that there is a problem with many posters not posting exactly what they should, all of us have made that mistake at one time or another. Some people think Daniel is too harsh, I think if you look at what we've had to deal with here at times, it is understandable. I'm not defending Daniel, he's perfectly capable of defending himself. You just have to remember this is usenet, and not take it personally unless it is very explicitly personal. Top-posting _is_ strongly discouraged in this group.
