99% of the time, I , and most of the other posters here, will answer
questions correctly, succinctly, and politely.

My point is merely that one should not *expect* an answer at all. The
people in these groups are unpaid anonymous volunteers (who usually are
pretty expert on the topic at hand). UNPAID. VOLUNTEERS.

If you go back and read through your previous posts, you will see (at
least I saw) an attitude of, "answer my questions, I demand it, dammit" or
something along those lines. (maybe minus the "dammit" part). That
attitude simply does not work withing Usenet.

later, hoss...
