Martin isn't assuming anything. He's speaking from experience just
like I am. If a situation doesn't fit you, don't worry about it.
Between us, we've read thousands of posts on here and on the other
boards. We get it.
Once you've read a few hundred posts and answered a few hundred
questions, some of them over and over, then you should share your
experiences with us and show us where we've misunderstood the
situation.
Before I forget, here's a link to an easier way to search the MS
archives. Just go to archive search at the bottom of the page.
