I pity the rare individual who comes across the board these days and actually thinks he can get a serious question answered or discussed.
BTW, if you visit there, you will note several familiar usernames posting there. Almost none of these are posted by the "real" person you know by those names.
BTW, again, one of the worst things that could be done would be to post a reply to some lost soul over there looking for a real answer giving them a link to this or any other reasonably useful board. That was done a year or two ago and we suffered through an invasion of the trolls here that lasted a couple of months. Fortunately, this board is monitored, and users have to register, so it eventually died out, but there is not much preventing it from starting up again.
I'd post the link, but, really, it is not worth your time.
