My last post....
I find it it very interesting there seem to be so many frustrated
people adding to this forum. Why are you even answering at all? If
you are so fed up with answering what you think are stupid questions,
don't answer. One day you will need someone elses advice, auto
mechanic, Lawyer, Dr. I don't care. I only hope they respond to you
in the same professional and curteous manner.
