 Russell,
 I can't agree that "I have taken almost exactly the opposite
meaning from your posts". I just have tried to show that
"opposite meaning" could be easily derived from your posts
for many non "very competent English speakers" - PICList
members.
 As for me, I hope, I felt the mood of your postings and
approximated  missed points when sometime didn't grasp
exact meaning.

 Mike.
PS:
   Thank you for the support when discussing beginner's PICs.
