Firstly, since you read and reread the list rules and FAQ you will note that
perhaps this should have been posted with an [OT:] tag.
You have just proven your complete arrogance and disregard for everybody
that has to read this drivel.

Also, I am curious(I am sure others and myself are going to kick me for
asking). What has been criminal about what has been said with regard to your
post?

Finally, you might try showing a little respect for the people you are so
rudely and arrogantly asking for help by offering your name?

Since you have just proven to the list that you are more than familiar with
the English language, shall we expect that all posts by yourself display as
much alacrity to explain yourself in future?
(that is, provided that you second post isn't your last)

Whilst you have been quite damn rude to the rest of the list, I'm quite sure
poor James is just as unimpressed with the soggy felling your have left him
with in certain regions.

Gloating is very unbecoming and makes great enemies.....and you have
approaching 2000 people on list to start accumulating them from. best of
luck with it, you've made a smashing start.


No Religion...$##@$!@**%@^^#! ^%$ $%# G*@t *&$ #$%@ !#(edited for posterity,
I don't want to get booted too)

To the rest of the people on list, including those who believe Olin should
stay gone(difference of opinion shouldnt mean all out war), have a great
week.

JJ

My sincerest apologies to everyone else for being presented with MY drivel
in this instance.

Hi again, this is my second post in this list, let's see what horrendous
crimes
I'll be accused of this time (it's really amusing), by some well educated
Lords.



My code and configuration was ok, I finally tracked down the problem thanks
to
some luck. It was a false contact in the CLKI pin.. I had already tested it
(I
better make sure I say this before I get shot in my head by another wannabe
Lord
Olin Lathrop), but when I did so with the probe of my multimeter I
inadvertely
pressed the pin on the PCB, and that created contact.. so it looked ok. But
it
really wasn't. I re-soldered that pin (it's my first experience with SMD
chips,
so maybe would you wannabe Sir Olins refrain from killing my family and all
my
neighbours please?), and now everything works great.


Before I close this post, I'd like to thank James Newton not only for being
an
excellent and fair moderator, but also for having good principles and
following
them.
One of these is that convenience has never to be traded with civilty or
justice.
Some have suggested that because Sir Olin Lathrop has contributed
technically
in the past, he may be forgiven the purely criminal mass of insane insults
he
has covered me with, after I just joined the list with a very honest
question
(regardless all the malice some of you would try to depict in it). Well, by
applying this very idea, a killer, a raper, any criminal may be left
unpunished
and free to continue his crimes just because maybe he has given advantages
to the society somewhere else (maybe being rich and paying a lot of taxes).
That is simply disgusting, and by allowing such things any community gets
ruined at the end, very quickly I may add.

Evidently, there are a lot of people with big, serious real life problems
but a lot of free time available for useless flames on the Internet (despite
their claims to not want to waste their precious time, but then writing a
long
post full of useless and gratuitous, totally stupid insults just to prove
themselves wrong about how precious is their time).

But there are also nice, helpful people that are willing to see things for
what they really are, and help if they can, or otherwise remain civil and
acceptably tolerant people.

To them goes my best regards, and my will to help when I'll get a chance to.

"Please, please, please.. forgive me for the wasted bandwidth of the last 20
or so lines, but don't consider me responsible for the megabytes wasted by
others with the excuse of my original, first post in my life in this list
(after reading the FAQ, yes). I've re-read it many times, and found nothing
wrong in it. A lot of criminal and totally bogus assumptions have been made
about my skills, professional experiences, finalities, methodologies and so
on. Those are really too boring to even waste my time reading those
fantasies,
let away replying. I'm new to those little, nice PIC processors, but I'm not
about all the rest you may imagine. I just hope nobody ever hands a rifle
(no
particular reason given) to some people like Sir Olin Lathrop, that's the
kind
of event that for its consequences then has a secure place on TV news. Scary
and sad, very sad how a human being can reduce himself. Now I understand why
there're so many abuses, violence, wars et simila going on in this world..

Code and let code.

Greets,
N.R.
