Mr. Reissaus,

Do you think it is a proper attitude to flame someone who has been answering questions posted by lazy morons like you for more than 10 years? At least I pointed out to you which was too difficult for you to include in your post.
As you are wasting people's time it appears YOU are the TROLL!!!!!!!

And now: PLEASE GET LOST!

No regards at all
