If you don't like Chris's style, then don't respond.  He's been on
this list a long time, and there are only two people here who have
fielded more questions than him, I'm one of them.  So if he gets out
of line (which in this thread he hasn't) *I'll* let him know.  For the
record, the only person here sinking to the level of petty insults is
you.  Don't let it happen again.
