   I know.  He flits about (grin) looking for me or anybody else to venomize.
I've been Fidonetting for over ten years now and am much accustomed to it.
Sometimes this type deep down in their guts wants to learn something and 
ries
to goad older and more experienced people into revealing something.  Seems to
me the straightforward way that most of us use just by admitting our 
gnorance
in so many areas is the best but I'm not much of a psychologist.  I was 
aised
to be polite to people unless severely provoked and it's a difficult habit to
break.
Sincerely,
