Hah, when one critique's, one must also expect S**T back for whatever reason,
valid or otherwise.

Entirely and totally unnecessary. You or anyone else on this [and other] lists
can talk quite straight to me Lloyd.

I'm an Aussie, sometimes we take criticism well, other times we just "trash"
you big time... <G>

It's a joke "Alice"

Rob and I are friends, he asked an opinion, I gave one. You're a friend and you
ventured an opinion in another area.

I'm hugely lucky, I've got heaps of friends [culturally different] through
QRP-L, SOC, FP-QRP G-QRP and Glowbugs plus others, I'm a rich man IMHO.

Grammatically you ventured an opinion, correct [I think] conventionally,
according to Hoyle, but not necessarily to our OZ rules of grammar etc..
Something one forgets including spelling e.g. colour, flavour and so on... hmm
cultural differences.

In short mate, dun worry 'bout it - my essential point I believe is correct,
only AR web sites use backgrounds...

Why? I dunno...

Wait for the French and UK connections. Their opinions? Why no Irish?

Paul's been quiet recently... So has mon ami, Claude

Oh, it's almost 2:00 a.m. locally, time for bed.
