The main difference between Ron and myself is that I speak from
experience, and Ron speaks from conjecture.  In other words, Ron makes
lots of stuff up.  This is an issue very relevant to this newsgroup, as
people come here for accuracy of information.  In some instances, Ron
gives good information; in other instances, he does not.  This is not
one of those instances in which he does not give accurate information.

Oh, and by the way, I am a man, not a ninny.  So just go ahead and save
your personal attacks for those who participate in your "reindeer
games", Ron.  I will continue to stick to the issues, as I always have.
