Years. I suggest you do a little research before walking through the cow pasture next time. You found where the cows were sleeping and are up to your neck in Ted's favorite lens cleaner. Out of the 1000+ LUGgers, there are 2.5 people who seem to have a problem with Erwin. I suspect this is because they cannot fathom that someone could know something that they don't know. If you don't know Erwin's credentials, perhaps you should just simply ask him. He will tell you exactly what you want to know. He is indeed, a genuinely nice person. Making wild-ass accusations on the LUG is certainly not an intelligent way to go about obtaining information. Jim Erwin Puts - imxputs@ision.nl and imxputs@knoware.nl
