ironic):

You can rest assured that virtually ever post from a long-time member  
of this forum is laced with chain-yanking, as well as some buried  
gems. I have to say, this is one of the lowest noise forums in which I  
have the pleasure of participating that I've ever seen. And when noise  
comes along, it's invariably entertaining, rather than flames.

Heh, sorry John - what Ian said is nail / head.  You wouldn't have noted
any nuance in my post as their wasn't any - it was facts unfort. the
rest of the List didn't have the benefit of all the info.  Some of us
are dumb enough / feel compelled to open our mouths about things, some
just sit back and eat popcorn and laugh, and... some are at the butt
end.

Hang here long enough and it should become quite self evident.  The
community is quite tight, and *GREAT* - for the most part.

Sorry to bore you, but like Ian said - some of you sictwistedbastids
enjoy it.  8-)
