   I'm not complaining at all. I just hand it over to the lawyers of my   
   insurance company. They are getting paid to complain :-)

   One of the advantages of being the owner of your own creations is that you   
   don't have to care about how you sound: you still own the products. In my   
   opinion that's better then crying like a child that doesn't get what he   
   wants. Even after a lot of crying he still doesn't have what he wants. Some   
   children learn from that and learn how to create things they want   
   themselves.
