Lots of people feel insulted at any correction. Should I have added smileys? AT LEAST I DIDN'T USE ALL CAPS. I need to get my message across. I don't drown people in thousand-word replies. I edit what I write before I send it. I have gobs of tolerance for newbies and engineering. If someone wants to whine about Microchip's new sample policy, at least that has some relevance to the Piclist. But I object to taking a nice sentiment about fruit and the sharing of knowledge and using it as an excuse to start a serial whinefest about taxes. That kind of behavior is insulting the whole Piclist. Any more questions?
