Nonono - you misunderstand: i was talking to the guy (Rob?) who asked the
original question. In other words, i was agreeing with you. ;)
I accidentally sent it to you since your name came up when i hit the "reply"
button.
(However, i was also making fun of you, since you had such a strong
attitude. I knew you could take it though, what with your thick hide and
all. In other words i was being sarcastic as well.)
So to sum up: i agree and disagree with both parties!
