Ted > Rather than bitching about terminology, help!
There are two posts supporting the proper use of "USS". The one for which I am responsible was as a result of rather accidentally spotting a reference to the correct use but a slightly mistaken one and so it was worth a word or two of correction. The other one contained the correction alongside a brief comment or two on the substance of the query which is surely to be considered as "help". Neither could be considered to be "bitching" in any normal person's use of the word. > Complaing about how somebody phrases something, rather than the problem they ask about is both arrogant and belittling. What tosh! I reserve the right to point out when a word such as, for example, "bitching" is used inappropriately and not to do so is not an option! > See redbooks. Redbooks have the just about the same validity as justification as posts in IBM-MAIN since they are quite likely to be written by the same people. Please refresh your memory of this topic in the thread to which I refer in my response to Peter Hunkeler.
