   A stranger who has done you no wrong, comes here, asks a question with some   
   facetious humor and you, lacking any humor whatsoever, takes a stab at the   
   stranger's competence or education.   
      
   Go forth and fornicate, I do not need your help, and learn English. Your other   
   posts on Usenet are full of spelling and grammatical mistakes. I doubt you   
   have the education of a canary. Just another self-important ignorant troll.
