That's USENET for you - I would ignore it - and why do you think I
called Joel a soft target in my original reply? I agree, it was a
stupid thing to do and he set himself up, but that doesn't excuse 'The
One' his behaviour.
Despite his health issues Joel has an abiding interest in photography and
valid opinions. English may not be his first language, but I don't have any
trouble getting his point. What's the point of bullying him around like
Frank Arthur and "The One" are trying to do? Let him be or kill file him.

I have them kill-filed to know what they bully about. My point is very
simple
1. Don't just drop a question then vanish
2. Don't find an easier way to make thing more difficult for other by asking
a too simple question. IOW, the more detail of the question the easier for
other to help with much better answer.
If Authur can't understand "I don't understand" means "more detail please"
then I agree with you kill-file is a way to go just like I kill-file many of
them.
And "The One" hehehe I dunno which "one" other thinks of <bg>, but I have
this sucker flushed the first 1-2 days after it popped out (yup! I mean
pop-out *not* pop-up).
