see s.spam for the message I replied to guess I should be thankful for 
the "wide latitude" You know this is BS I answered the damn message, did 
the search since I couldn't remember my facts at what I thought was your 
request trying to help excuse the hell out of me YES I know better then 
to email off line with out asking first I thought I proved that when I 
asked mike a little while ago. I use my real addy because I dont' hide 
behind nothing I never want to have to hide again but that's for another 
group.
Gee had you written me in private I could have sent the message to you 
in an attachment so that you could see it. Like I said before I've given 
up on who's who around here & maybe it's just ime I left & hopefully 
someone around this place will help if ever I do have a problem I know 
one thing I"m tired of getting jumped around here, sorry folks I never 
claimed to know anything, I just came to see what was going on. Sre hope 
you can take the headers I"m leaving & burn the person that started this 
which is the person that sent me the note NOT me for the record.
