Grant, we could have sorely used your services back in the days of the cold
war. You, at the time,  could have made a significant impact. We could have
forced suspected foreign agents to read your posts, after several, I'm sure
they would have simply "spilled their guts" and told us all their secrets to
avoid having to read more.

Too bad, you were too late and obviously missed your window of opportunity.

Now, regarding bungy wings, please have some regard for the rest of us and
check the achieves, that horse has been beaten so long its blood is dry

Now, if you do not like the presentation styles on this list, I heartily
suggest you do something about it and stop your bitching.
Perhaps you could organize a get together where we could all sit around the
campfire holding hands and singing verses of "Kumbaya" and never again bash
a stupid stroke for killing himself when he knew better. After which, by the
way, you could explain to us why you choose to deco on 50%.

My apologies to the list for wasting band width, but too much is too much!

Grant, please politely sit down and shut up.

Pete Wallace

    People still sell fords and ladas............are there books, or a web
site about this, *don't buy this because.........*, or  *buy this one
because.............*, as ive said many times, I know diddly about dir,
(thats why im here), and im sure there are many others in my position,
lurking away, too scared to ask such a seemingly simple question
