Sometimes a good technique to prevent a big fire is to cut out the stuff that is not adding anything to the heart of the discussion. Even if you do not agree with some of the surrounding statements, you do not have to answer each statement/each paragraph to prove your point. You may have noticed I cut a whole part of your mail out just to make the mail friendly again. I don't want to reply to blame/reblame because that is exactly what leads to reaction. Just answer the nice parts, and people think you are nice too. Right ? You think I'm nice, don't you ? :) -- dag wieers, dag at wieers.com, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [all I want is a warm bed and a kind word and unlimited power]
