| peter wieck <peterwieck9@gmail.com>: Nov 25 08:27AM -0800 There are times when I am told: But, you know what I mean! To which the only valid answer is: No, I know what you said (wrote). I am still trying to discern what you mean. Be very, very careful about making assumptions in a technical discussion, and in using any of poor grammar, syntax, word-choice, punctuation or spelling. The consequences may be significant - and surprising. Peter Wieck Melrose Park, PA |
