Hey, David, I support the right to share knowledge and express opinion but I think you need to do a better job of it. Claiming that Erik is wrong, puts the impetus of proof on you. It's your responsibility to provide direct qoutes with publication titles and page numbers. A failure to demonstrate your arguments and show test results becomes a knock against your credibility. Erik has made a siginificant contribution that many of us need. I imagine alot of people have followed this thread and would like it to either end, or resolve with a positive and intellectually compelling tact. David, I'm a satisfied user of Erik's code and will continue happily using it. I imagine that statement in your opinion is an admission of ignorance but I'll happily live with that. If Erik improves his code with or without your help all the better. David, I read your posts knowing I'll learn something and it seems obvious that both you and him are talented. I think we're all better off for having both of you participating and hope it stays that way.
