Re: More indicator questions??? Help!

For a programmer/webdev/webmaster you seem to have lost it. Multiple websites
{and commercial too, I suppose} and no brain. Why don't you all start building your
own instead of pestering others for it...............................and then post their results?

First the cheeck + then the nerve, then:

Do you truely think that somebody is giving away Propriety stuff................?
Let alone shared propriety?

Don't you read your List mails? You have been around long enough to do so and
to follow one's posts on this topic !!!!

And do we need your companies {commercial} sollicitations here:
www.xxx.com, www.this.com and www.that.com ??
