    Then that wouldn't be a single application, would it?

    Oh, I know I can.  But not as efficiently.

    That wasn't yelling, that was emphasis for a point I knew you would miss.
You are, in part, responisble for my problems.  You are part of the crowd that
keeps harping that *your* way is *the* way to the exclusion of all others.

    New?  I addressed that in the last message.  I also addressed that I
cannot program.  Most people can't you know.  I've also pointed out that I am
not opposed to paying for others to program something I would like.  That is
why I have an offer up on the Software Bazaar and when that one is fulfilled
I'll pay for more *OPEN SOURCE* development.
