Felipe, sonme of the Z1 nodes are so tired of being told they do not
belong, ¨that they get a bit short in the reply and perhaps, a bit rude
although the ¨actual phrase above 'smelling the coffee' isnt normally
considered 'rude'.  It ¨means more like 'hey, listen to me, I have
something to say and do not want to ¨be ignored'.

Steven mauy not be right, but I do not think he was intentionally rude.  He
¨merely did not know how it would come across to you.
