Friendliness is OK, but that should IMHO not get in het way of an honest opinion. I did not see any opinion in Olins message about the OP, only an opinion about his message. I consider that honest, not hard. I did not post any response to the OP's message because on seeing the square of un-formatted words I immediately skipped to the next message. Part of what Olin says is: that is the effect of un-formatted message on at least some people. Maybe that is what the OP wanted, but I think not. Olin, Jan-Erik and probably some others pointed that out, each in their own way. IMHO that is the best service they could do to the OP.
