   IF DAvid thinks my posts are weirdly formatted I guess he   
   hasn't been around this group, or usenet very long.  NEver   
   seen him until this garbage here anyway, but then I don't   
   read any of the newsgroups other than rec.audio.pro except   
   when threads get the crosspost from hell treatment.

   Which is the point I"m trying to get across, that DAvid   
   seems to be too obtuse to grasp.  LEt me put it another way.   
      
   My van, and my truck are devices made for transportation.  I   
   know enough about them to maintain them, and to hire work   
   done I don't have tools or facilities to do.  HOw they get   
   the job of conveying me and my stuff from point A to B isn't   
   that big a concern to me.  I"m not a motorhead.   
   I don't hang out in motorhead newsgroups or discussion   
   forums.  IT's the same way with computers, they are tools to   
   get a job done.  I don't happen to like any gui operating   
   system, for a variety of reasons.  What you like is fine,   
   for you, have at it, but I'm not going to spend a lot of   
   time arguing about a tool which I essentially use like the   
   part of the analog system that stored the data on reels of   
   tape.  Being in the profession I"m in I get enough operating   
   system nerd chatter.   
   YOu think we actually got a point across Hank, or are we   
   just adding to the general noise.  I'll wait for an   
   actually interesting thread to come along when it does and   
   drop back into lurk mode.

   Amazing how much tape is on a 10" reel when it's not.
