Dear Mark Although your post was not addressed to me directly, I take it that I am the ASS. I have not accused anyone of stepping on my freedom of speed, I just wondered why my post was rejected. I don't know anything about posts, and when the general said that he'd been "delisted" I thought maybe I had been also. As I have explained, I meant nothing by using capitals--in the shipping business, where telexes were our means of communication for many years, that was all we had--and I certainly didn't intend to shout.
That said, however, I am not accustomed to being called an ass, and I certainly wouldn't call someone that under similar circumstances. Max Hardberger
