Could you not just be a bit more polite and say 'Did I misunderstand?'
The reason I mention it is simple. When I started out with Linux I made
lots of mistakes. I still do. I don't mind that, I'm human. It's a real
turn off when you come up against those that throw the short, curt and
plain bloody minded and rude answers down.

look a fool', the tend to think 'WHAT AN ASSHAT'. Happy New Year Keith.
Don't disappear up yourself, will you ;-)
