Here we go again...

FRANZ,

Read the post... Take offense...

Take a DEEP BREATH...

HOLD IT....

HOLD IT....

HOLD IT....

HOLD IT....

Are you turning blue yet?  HOLD IT....

HOLD IT....

HOLD IT....

Are you still conscious?  HOLD IT....

HOLD IT....

OKAY, let it out now...

Now decide it's not worth YOUR time, or OUR bandwidth, for you to berate the person and move on to the rest of your inbox....

Sorry folks, Dr. Stranglove took over my typing hand... ;-)
