I beg to differ.

And Chris, you may find you do not like where the hammer finally lands when it has traveled its full measure! Look up, what is that spinning shadow?

LOL

Monk - you're an idiot - I suggest you refrain from any more smart ass remarks or your stay here will be VERY short.

anyone who cannot see this is a fool.

Monk I'll give you some advice - If you want to post opinions It's best to avoid insulting remarks when doing so. Also you will notice that the Mods have their names colored, if you get insulting or flippant with them it's at your own peril.

Got this off some BB somewhere, sometime.

Great info!!!!!

Thanks.

Al - this is best summary I have seen so far and adds some facts to my own speculation.

Yeah, that was a great post, Al! I saved it on my HD!

Guys what happened to Al? I see he got banned, he didn't seem like the hotheaded type.
