Gee - sorry. I guess we'll all have to take a pay cut. BTW - you misspelled "useful". Is that some kind of record?

Classic laymens mistake, the 2 that were not useful to you were not addressing your question. That does not mean the officials were incorrect, they just weren't addressing what you wanted them to address.
However that does make you 1 for 2 (50%).

Actually, when Padgett's not around (and OS and a couple of other trolls) our percentages go way up. Even Padgett has his uses, though. He's great at fashion shows, if there are fishnets in use.

Juulie - I just got some new ones. They're orange and glow in the dark!

To quote an old television commercial - "I'd rather fight than switch".
