I'm afraid that's my fault CF. I've got him so flustered and beside
himself that he really can't concentrate on doing what's reasonable
like the rest of us are able to do. The best I can offer now is just
let him talk to himself a few more times and maybe he'll get tired of
the same old answers.

Hmmm. You mean exactly what both you and Singer did? However, you
choose to respond to me. Curious ...

If you really want to know I did it so my responses to opt-shill's
idiotic post would remain and irritate Rob. Any other questions?
