Eric, could you please inform the know-it-all Christina and the rest of the
idiots who contribute nothing to this knowledge base but claim it all after

for the WKPP's success using deep stops to shorten and correct the entire
deco. About how many years ago was that?

Maybe people are just a little too concerned with the recent allegations

from their home offices!
