I was annoyed because I wasn't getting help.
You'll see you shouldn't think everyone has the same resources and ease
and/or aviability of management of things. Just a point so you don't put
everyone in your shoes. When I say I can't I mean I can't. AS soon as I
could subscribe to the newsletter I did, and yet here I am posting using
the online form and its textbox cause Outlook just doesn't do It. My point
is: why add more complication at the process of doing something when you
can get around it and fix it later doin' it right?

Again, quickness. Configure newsreader later. Why wait half a day for
something that can be done back and forth in half an hour? Again, are you
European?

Steve's just replied being very friendly and polite, See my reply to him.

That's your opinion and being entitled to it doesn't mean you have to make
anyone else think like you and get into your shoes. Hey when I thought
Steve's was pissed because I said "man" to him not knowing it could be
offending I let him be pissed and deal with it himself.

Ok I see, I just didn't did it because, (please understand) "I COULDN'T
FOLLOW THEM"; so I found an inmediate alternative and MOVED ON to help YOU
help me, to keep it going. Later I insisted on following the policies
because I always saw the point of doing it. That's the whole point, don't
try to get everyone else into your shoes, and make them think like you.

The conclussion of all this is:

Don't drive any conclussions without getting the whole information. And that
goes for the three of us.

Peace I'm Out.

Oh and BTW peeing didn't come to any section of Triune Brain. Being  animal,
logical and sentimental.

Einar.
