ooooh!

Having read this "thread", I can only say; who opened Pandora's box? whether
there is a legitimate or illegitimate reason for selling this kit, and
*without* prejudice, surely there's no reason to react with such vengeance?
Surely this behaviour is the so-called behaviour of a "net nanny"?

just my t'punce worth - not arguing for either "side" but pointing out the
*apparent* lack of humility in many of the parties involved in this thread
that misguidedly believes that their POV is offering anything positive to
the group

Now, about my busted hard-drive on my 4r ... ;-).
