I did learn a couple of words from you. Pity they're more suitable for an argument in a pub than for a normal conversation.

Don't play dumb. It means the difference is not significant enough to be a factor.

I doubt they are. It's just another useless thread.

First made an observation based on experience, later watched and laughed at you getting emotional and personal.

Playing dumb again. Not the first time, not the first thread. If it's 'mystifying', try to re-read, otherwise twist away.

When you'll get out into 'real world' you'll find that there are very few 'individual setups'. Like two or three and they cover 95% of cases. What I say is what usually happens. So go out there, read tapes, check logs etc. I wish you well.

Pity. I hoped for a bit more, it was fun watching you (although too predictible). Well, I'm sure you'll be back with last-last word. Received on Tue Nov 30 2004 - 23:43:39 CST
