My apologies. Pompous and superior I deny (or try to avoid anyhow).
Sarcasm was intended, but aimed at the corporate lawyers and marketeers who
prefer to stonewall or parrot rather than be helpful. It was NOT aimed at
you!

> I'm not an idiot, and I don't like being talked down to.
Fair go. I posted in an attempt to be helpful. I did try to inject some
light-hearted humour along the way.

Cheers
