(leaving my chin wide open here...) Karl, really, legitimate questions regarding real problems are good fodder for the list. The responses to those questions are even better. A final "Solved!" to wind it up is super nifty (and something there's not enough of...many discussions just peter out without a clear resolution--good or bad). If you're conducting a dialog with someone on the list where you've been asked to "do X and tell us what the result is", then that exchange's also appropriate. Some of the postings you made were good and did generate information that's useful. That all being said, a running monologue on what you're doing is _not_ appropriate for the list and really should be put on a blog. Did Karl "blog"? Yes. Should he have? No. Will he do it in the future? I doubt it. I think he (and many other quasi-bloggers) get it now. Anyway, this has degenerated into nothing more than a name-calling, mudslinging donnybrook and is accomplishing nothing more than sucking bandwidth (and yes, by posting this I'm guilty of bandwidth suckage as well).
