Before anyone makes any smart comments, my previous posting was an accident. I
told Oasis to hold it, but it went ahead and posted it anyway (before I had
finished it), whoops.

I gave excellent details and even had quite a chat to the Demon guy, and like I
said, he 'appeared' to know what he was doing. He knew damn well he was
supposed to just delete the two. Are you sure you don't work for Demon, Paul?
They did their utmost to blame me and call me an idiot (I may well be, but it's
not polite to say so, and I wasn't in this case :-) ).
They screwed up, end of story.

Too right it shouldn't. But it's about what I've come to expect from Demon
(they couldn't organise a p**s up in a brewery).
An apology might have been nice, but that would have meant they'd have to
accept responsibility (god forbid).
