Paul, Well I guess this says it all: >most people would rather kill themselves than face the smell. This borders on mental illness. It's as if a doctor has a cure for your particular fatal disease, but you don't like the guy so you allow yourself and others to die because of simple, stupid pride. What the hell do personalities have to do with it? What, do you tell your boss you won't do your job because you don't like the guy you're working with? And I suppose you'd tell your wife, "I'd rather you and the kiddies starve than face the BS at work." Attitude? Your attitude smells worse than any I've seen online yet. If I only adopted ideas from people I could tolerate I'd never have made it through high school and certainly never through college given the posturing prima donnas that populate those halls. The only thing your note inspires are the words, "grow up." Later, JoeL -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
