If you can't do it, well, you can't do it. No problem to me. :-)
Catalyst:
One that precipitates a process or event, especially without being
involved in or changed by the consequences.
Based on previous postings, you don't suspect that this fellow is a
catalyst, do you ? :-)
Not even close, Leo I accomplished nothing by my question. I'm cold
fusion, friend!
My mistake, Mike - for a minute there, I thought that you might be
trying to start something up, then step back and watch the fun.....
Good to hear that you ain't that type! :-)
We're *all* that type here Leo!
Not at all, Mike - some engage in heated discussion and stand by their
beliefs, others enjoy starting them up then running away - sorta like
Usenet arsonists......well, you know the type :-)
Actually, my point was that if we're going to bust Jim's chops about
what appeared to be an error on his part, *we* should be able to back up
that chop busting with some good hard data. I could work the problem out
eventually, but I'm a dilettante at best in such matters.
Well, he is traditionally the first one to jump on someone for 'being
wrong' about something - anything, actually, no matter how trivial -
and often only in his own opinion at that.
Which is unlikely - he's made too many enemies with his "You're just
wrong. I'm always right" attitude in the group for that to be an
option.
It is interesting to see the reaction when the tables are turned. You
know that if he had have popped in and said "you're right, guys, I
screwed up", this thread would have died out. Apparently, and quite
unfortunately, that isn't possible for him to do - so he avoids the
issue, and hopes it goes away.
Like the old saying goes, "if you can't take it, don't dish it out" !
He's reading this thread, though - he knows it's here. When the time
is right, he'll jump in and try to take control of it - just watch!
Meanwhile, he's out there today regaling us with his wisdom on the
subject of license fees, and other matters.
And reading.......
