Hello HELLO HEEEEELLLOOOO. GRANT!! Are you listening? I would guess at least 10-12 members (myself included, in a number of posts, written as logically and politely as I could manage) have explained that the DIR message has been given repeatedly, in detail, with diagrams, logical explanations, ad infinitum. Guess what? The unrepentant strokes respond exactly the way you are responding to all the posts trying to answer your repeated bleating. To summarize, the response from the confirmed DIW (Doing It Wrong for the slow starters) crowd to polite logic is typically "huh" or sometimes "duh" and always ignoring the logic. This seems to be the direction your replies have taken. I cannot decided if you have a reading comprehension problem, if you are just one of the deep air diving morons masquerading as an enquiring mind to stir the pot a little, or just masochistic and needed a little on line abuse. Whichever, the bottom line is you are ignoring the message and content of every response to your complaints and keep repeating the same tired whine, "all the DIR guys are soooo mean, no one can ever listen". And you wonder why some get exasperated and resort to profanity and more?
