Sigh. P.S. I find quite hard to understand why there are users who despite consider my postings to be sort a "newbie killers" and "soft-mind perverters" are still replying to them. The only conclusion I can reach for this behaviour is that: 1/ my posts contain some kind of magnetic material that inevitably attracts them (though I haven't have found any trace of ferrite in the headers) or 2/ is just they want to make noise. I will have to deeply think in which of the both options hold the true. Mmmm...
