Oh, well, though, never one to let sarcasm go to waste: [end edit]

Hey Dolfan and Ernie,
Sorry for the caps. It was our first day posting
a thread.
And it was your first day ever seeing the site, and you decided not to read any posts, or you did but did not notice that nobody uses all caps?
Chill out man!!! I didnt realize it
was a personal attack. What are you guys, the cyber
police??? We had a question and we were hoping
for some responses from guys like yourself that
had some experience with different issues.
You will get that. But you must conform, you see, to our narrow norms. On this site, we are very specific as to whom we will help. Here's the short list of people who fit within our tight definition of community:
Any color, any nationality, any skill level, any attitude, any political party, any religion, have any native language, come from any planet or dimension now known or unknown.
The long list of people who will not get help here:
1.Those who shout (the, what, twenty-year old computer protocol for shouting is to capitalize all letters; it is not just you -- this happens to most people the first time they use a computer).
2.Those who ask questions so unfocused or so generic as to only inspire sarcasm.
3.Those who read threads more than a couple months old and bump them back to the top of the list by making irrelevant comments.
Group two will get their answers once they settle down and ask answerable questions. Group one will be hammered, usually once, and then most of them will respond with happy, happy, joy, joy, these guys want to help, but jeeze, they are consulting for free and don't want to have to wade through capital letters, so, okay already. Group three is hopeless.
Get a life...................LOSERS!!!!!!!!!
Ah. I see you are now all happy, happy, joy, joy that you have found a community you can be part of.
[that last was actually part of the original post, not edited -- I did say sarcasm, didn't I?]
