You really are a nasty little piece of work aren't you Korpela, and getting
worse and worse over the years.
You have a go at me for typing "element" when I really meant "tag" and then
you come out with this piece of putrescible garbage which has absolutely no
meaning in itself and would utterly confuse the OP, probably scaring said OP
off whatever quest the OP is on.
This is typical of the majority of your posts. Belittle the poster, point
out how stupid or pointless *you* think OP's quest is and then proceed to
pontificate.
Your pitiful reference to the words of the Jedi Knight Yoda (which I can
only assume you think is a name similar to 'Yucca' and so therefore must, by
association, gift you with similar unusual powers) is, to say the lest,
putrid.
Why don't you just crawl back under the flagstone rock of whatever
universitey you now inhabit (not the one that ousted your disgusting "web
site", the other one) and stay the fuck out of the newsgroups.
Don't bother to reply at length, if at all. I only ever (usually) read the
first line of your posts, just to be certain you are being your usual odious
self.
