Alan, if I've said something to offend you, I apologize. I really don't know
what it was, but this was only one of several snide or hostile comments you've
directed at me recently.



I asked for mandate suggestions.

Not only did you not offer any, you criticize what someone else offered.

So, no need to apologize, there is a need to suggest mandates.


As for my response to Bowser, he and I live in the same metropolitan area,
where the taxis are as boring as they are anywhere. (A few years ago, the
mayor of Boston made a campaign promise to demand that all taxis in the city
be the same color - white.) I'm confident that Bowser recognizes this and took
my attempt at humor in the spirit in which it was intended.


I really don't care.

I'm trying to get ideas for a mandate. What do I get?

1. Molon taking this off to some cockamamie discussion about newsgroups.
2. Eric and others displaying their complete lack of understanding of
image sizing and prep of an image for web display.
3. Few of the participants proposing an idea for mandates.

Really.

I bear no hostility yo you or anyone, but for Christ's sake it would be
nice if people would answer the call.
