All right Luggers ,
I've always enjoyed reading Erwin's posts but I'm still wondering 
why he is so susceptible about the responses .
If you write something , you will always find someone thinking
you were wrong , and this is all natural .
Erwin makes me think about 14 year old teenager , sulking on 
any occasion .
I met someone in my new company , about 60 year old , a dutch
born man , with the same attitude ; He has been fired since then .

One advice Erwin : drink a good beer , grab your M7 and Elmar 
( very nice stuff by the way ) and go out shooting ? This will enable
you to breath fresh air ...
