As someone else has posted, "CFV" can mean "Criminal Forgery Violaters"
for all a newbie understands.

For the record, I agree with this sentiment. Frankly, I'd suspect that you were
all closet congress critters with the inflexible way you were handling
this.

For the record, I do NOT agree with the DoD being notified of this and 
would appreciate it if whomever would not take my fight so seriously.
It's only USENET and I personally get lots of practice arguing with people
more stubborn than most fundamentalists. I'd hate it if you took that 
away. <grin>
