Probelem with the clients - MICHAEL VOIGHT COMMENT

FYI, I've been doing this since the early 80's...  I'm trying to
affect change where I see a need.  When I first started this, the
spirit was one of a helpful nature.  That is no longer always the
case.  When people post like Michael has, it cannot be considered a
good thing.  I do NOT discount his knowledge or the information that
HAS helped lots of people.  I just question the manner and tone in
which it is done.  Surely you understand that.  Like all things, I
understand that everyone is entitled to an opinion on the subject and
I respect that.  Please respect my opinion as well.

Notice that I didn't "bitch" about the attitudes of the thousands of
other posters.  Just his.  For a reason.  Perhaps he doesn't know that
there are probably lots of people that will be discouraged to ask
questions when responses like: "Well...  what did you THINK it meant
when you typed it?" will be given.

That's all.  Thanks for the direct feedback.  I welcome open dialog.

Cheers,
Malacai
