Trying hard to understand your point. If you are stating that I should
care what I think about how Command Prompt is represented on the list...
I let our record speak for itself.

In regards to the people I replied to, which would be Scott and Merlin.
We have known each other for a long time. This will be hardly the first
time we have disagreed on approach.

If you think anything I wrote was an attack, I apologize. I admit my
general sensitivities are not as tender as some people would like. I
usually point out the obvious, provide simple solutions and not beat
around the bush (preferring of course to chop the offending weed down).
If you would like flowery prose, sorry. It isn't my talent.

Other than that... welcome to Open Source. We speak our minds, in plain
site. I hope you stay and help us with the best opens source database on
the planet.
