   As always you are wrong, Gortard, did you take a look in the Dutch NG's?   
   I even helped (s)Marti quite often and many other users.   
   M$ answers sucks, it's a forum and I avoid those stupid forums, like a   
   plague.   
   I only offer my assistance on Usenet.   
      
   For a man of the cloth, you have to cure yourself from lying and trolling so   
   much!   
   Do your members of the church council know about your lies, Gortard?   
   Maybe someone should inform them!
