Duly noted.
After I posted I realized I was crabby at the time and probably crossed the line.
Appologies to threemae
As there is no point in continuing with this thread, I will recommend the following procedure for the OP:
Put my username in your ignore list and unsubscribe from this thread and from the most recent gems thread. This should help to spare you any further trauma, since so many of my posts seem to send you into an irrational rage. I will ignore you as well since I have no desire to keep rehashing a subject that is already stale.
