I am only a bystander looking at this correspondence with a lot of
amusement. I aint biased so in a way Greg is right. It is a feature, however
i doubt the feature was intended that way, which makes it a feature-bug. You
havent figured it out yet.......tutututtut its in the priority codes.
Should i say more? So i believe greg when he says he found out about it 6
months ago and reported it. It isnt all that hard to find is it when you
look for it...and about that particular aspect i keep my opnion to myself.
