     The term double-standards comes to mind but I will resist going down that
path just now.

     I try to go by a few basic principles. Say what you mean as best you can
and mean what you say. And secondly, try to treat others the same way that you
would like to be treated. Now I don't claim to always succeed but I try to
the best of my abilities. There will always be some that will dislike you
or what you do regardless. But if I am secure that I have done my best then
I am content with that. And the few that may still have a problem with me
can
kiss my... ummm... wrist.

     I would agree. It would be like quoting header and path lines here on
every message. If your refering to a particular path then fine. Otherwise
what
is the point or necsessity?
