better to sound like a friend, than a grumpy old school headmaster/mistress don't you think?

'tone' (second only to sarcasm it seems) is very difficult to portray over a keyboard, and that post isn't on its own. :)

and while we are at it "you STILL haven't" its like he has ignored a comand or something...

Her second was good, sound, advice. Not a grumpy old school headmistress. Tpak2 is a kid. Kids need guidance. That's all Dee was doing. The kid can learn alot from her and many others here. Including yourself Torker Man as you are very knowledgeable in the scrap metal industry yourself.

O.K, i'll leave it at that. I have said enough. I think everyone knows where I stand now on those types of comments.

**back to regular programing**

Oh! I just noticed you are from Batten Rouge. I Did my Snap-On training in Fort Worth with a mountain of a man called Meme. he was from Batten Rouge.

Would be funny if you kew him (would have been a Snap-On tools dealer 2001 onwards) I think he was a city council member too?
