dirtyjose, no i'm not trying to be funny, and no i'm not a world class dunce. just to make it clear, i don't have any infraction against my name, neither do i have any personal grudge against the person. my remark on d-man came as a result of my observation on the threads trashed by the aforementioned, many of which were interesting to read, but removed on one person's opinion on it alone. again, its not for me to decide, neither am i demanding a change in rules or anything of the sort. likewise, it was just my personal feelings in response to the asker's question, and it should be treated as such. and for those smelling alt or ctrl or shift in me, please feel free to check my ip, just to make sure i'm what i claim to be, and not a keyboard key
