Ron,
If your not really looking for 'anything' then why do you write so many
posts here making it blatantly clear what your looking for?? Most
people on this list are serious and are looking to genuinely improve
their knowledge...they seek help or guidance with coding
issues......they provide new ideas....or discuss constructive topics to
help further our understanding. As you qualitfy under none of these it
is merely causing unecessary disruption and clogging up our email and
taking away peoples' valuable time. People here I would suggest aren't
interested in what your trying to prove...mainly because we all know it
simply isn't true...So I once again stronlgy suggest you either move
back to chat sites to sell your softweare on the sly or move to another
field of endenvour entirely as has been suggested by others as well as
me.
