I was just "closing" the thread incase someone bothered to respond in days
to come, stop em wasting their time, as I might not see it, since i might 
be away for days or weeks at a time from this list, and with avg of 100 
posts a day, do you really think i'm gunna sit here and go through 
thousands of posts :)  so i tend to just delete to about the last page 
or so in pine, or high-speed-skim if theres only a few hundred, most often
something wont catch my eye.

trolls by defination contribute nothing, so i was living up to your/their 
expectations of me :)
