but mike says it's with your permission if you post to the list it is for EVERYONE to read, anyone can answer that post. If they decide not to do so in front of everyone, for whatever reason, and answer in private email it is their decision. By what right does the receiver of that post, have to post it to 2000 people. EVERYONE is entitled to there opinion If someone thinks Olin's a waste of time, fine If someone thinks mike's a waste of time, fine If someone thinks I'm a waste of time, fine Bringing it to the attention of 2000 people, childish and arrogant.

Ha-ha, I "take every possible opportunity to kiss Olin's a$$" Could you please name admins (plural) who asked me to stop kiss Olin's a$$? No?

Only seven posts this week: "Re: [EE:] 24vdc from a 15vdc psu" "Re: [PIC:] beginner troubles" about MChip's TC125/TC126 DC/DC regulator (kicking, not kissing Olin's a$$, by the way) "Re: [PIC:] beginner troubles" - MChip's TC110 step-up DC/DC regulator "Re: [PIC:] beginner troubles" - MChip's MCP6S21 PGA "Re: [PIC:] ; Re MCP6S2x" - MChip's MCP6S21 PGA "Re: [PIC:] ; Re MCP6S2x" - MChip's MCP6S21 PGA "Re: FYI" Saturday off-toppic You've driven crazy of just 7 abovementioned posts this weak, buddy? > Tell us something about pics!

Thank you very much for being just honest, not rude. In fact, your such really honest manners guy seem hard to find. And thanks as well for your invaluable PIC-related input, I've searched the archive. Olin is just a kid compared to you. > And Mike, you constantly whine that your english is bad so > if you do not understand this, then tough luck.

PICs will pass away, but English the language of Shakespeare will stay forever (I hope). Anyway, thanks for the feedback, I'll ask James if I have to shut up, or just to improve something.
