Mmm, and how many people claiming that have suggested specific improvements or pointed out specific complaints? All I've received are some vague mutterings about how it should be less formal, some vague mutterings about how it should be more formal, some incoherent rants about how it's in some way unreadable and no actual specifics. All in all, something that looks suspiciously like "I don't have any genuine objections but like to moan"... So how, specifically, is PMS "wrongly written", and why hasn't anyone who thinks so bothered to provide details? -- Ciaran McCreesh
