Unfortunately, that's the > impression I'm getting. :-( Here are the issues as I see it: 1) You are using language that inflames opinions (as much as the people talking opposite). And then you want reason to come into the discussion. 2) You see a problem, but are having a problem communicating what the problem is without going into what I a neutral person feel like is 'you are with us or against us'. Personally we all know how that usually goes. Doesn't matter if the cause is just people will choose to be against because they do not like that kind of rhetoric. 3) You keep trying to get the last word as if that will somehow will win an internet fight. You want things fixed? How about the following: A) Quit being vocal about it. It is only throwing chum in the water and basically turning people off. Look and listen. Ask people privately what they are seeing and why you aren't getting your point across. B) Look at the problem and realize its currently not (and probably never been ) about technical qualifications. Either side pushing what features are in and are out are missing the point. Look and learn what the point really is and frame the questions and possible answers to answer those hidden points. -- Stephen J Smoogen. -- BSD/GNU/Linux How far that little candle throws his beams!
