No offence, Nathan, but what do you know about ettiquette? Most of the
flame wars in this newsgroup have your name listed repeatedly on them.
The flame wars are childish, nasty, and have no ettiquette. My very
first post on Usenet got a responce from you that was a flame. Do you
remember the first time "AHML Patron" posted here last summer? That was
me. It was the only way I had at the time to use Usenet.
