 For that same reason most of the time I think about asking something in
 the list I don't. I'm not the brightest of guys here by a mile, but
 I think the subject of the mail and the content specified clearly what
 I was asking for. Opinions not work-arounds.

 A lot of mails are answered in this list with "change your hardware, use
 x that is no good(1), ..." are not helpful. So when I asked for
 something expecting to get that kind of answer(1), I get answers that
 don't apply.

 On the true statement there was no will to insult, Walid suggested it.
 Could be swapped for "if you say so".

 As usual Tet has come out with an answer that satifies me, thanks.
