Thanks Radar. Sorry if I have compounded the problem or if the tone of my post came across wrong, it certainly wasn't meant in a grumpy or frustrated way.
FL310 - Easy tiger....who got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning? Sorry if I'm so ignorant as not to read every post on this board and inadvertantly miss something relevant in the process - however it may suprise you to learn that I am also one of these people who has a life off of this board. The great thing about this board is the ability to post more or less what you want - where you want (and have it moved to the relevant place lol!). If you look closely you'll find quite a few topics duplicated all over the place. Also if others newer to the site have the same problem as I do and go to this forum they can look that this post and have their questions answered quickly instead of trawling through numerous other treads.
Lastly I think that my post takes up very little band width and if the problem was really THAT bad then you'd find the JET BLAST forum being omitted for a short time. Whilst being very popular and very funny I'm sure it takes up substantial band width but with largely unimportant subject matter that everyone would give up for a short while if the problem was THAT bad.
Maybe you'd be kind enough to take a step back before repremanding me, and take more time to think about what your posting? I too appreciate the time put in by all who make this site work - I have offered my services and free time to a similar C/C site and so fully understand what is involved.
Cheers......time for bed!!!
