Yes and you responded on Dec 5th. Surely Björn's rule posting of Dec 1st must
have arrived at your system by then. If not you you Do have a link problem.

And if it did arrive on your system, you put your foot in your mouth by not
reading all messages before responding.

Than you have either one of the following:

1) A link problem
2) A memory problem
3) An attention span problem.

Either one should entice you to tone down a bit from that "mr infallable"
attitude of yours.

You read my message on Dec 2nd and only responded on Dec 5th? without reading
Björn's posting of dec 1st in the meantime? Sorry, I don't believe that.

I also don't believe that you have not read Jack's moderator message when you
wrote the message I am now responding too.

And so you are ignoring Jack's edict. The one that by your own statements you
recognise as the elisted moderator.

You are acting in violation of your ow standards.

Nobody forced you to set the settings as they are. The rules are posted once a
month. That you missed that is your shortcoming and yours alone.

Cheers, Michiel
