Seriously Paul, do you write this dribble to keep yourself amused or is
this a language problem? Are you attempting to insinuate that any
system that works correctly will not do what I want? What type of
gibberish is that? Furthermore, I have no intention of reading an
eleven year old publication, even if I could easily find it.

Since you obviously have nothing to legitimately add to this thread,
there is no need for you to continue.
