Considering your first posting on the subject (follow link below), we are undewhelmed with the result. http://makeashorterlink.com/?T68212CA8 OTOH it is head and shoulders above anything ever seen posted by TP. Alan, While I can understand what you are trying to say, and why, I do not believe that not posting pictures - in the context of an equipment NG - is in itself a valid reason for criticism. I very much doubt, for example, that you have ever seen a picture of mine, since I only do prints and have never posted anything on the web. Whilst it is something I mean to get around to when I have time, and I feel slightly remiss for my lack of energy, I don't think such a failure devalues anyone's contributions. I mention this mainly to minimise the risk that anyone will be put off asking for, or giving, help here just because they have no gallery.

However you are polite, urbane, modest, intelligent and probably handsome too. The reason I (and others) hone in on TP is that he is such a rude and critical asshole, that the Americanisms "All hat, no cattle" and "He talks the talk, but does he walk the walk" come directly into the foreground. The reason he backlashes at me is simply because I steadfastly will not let him off the hook. This makes me a target for him. Because he takes such a position, his credentials do indeed bear examination. The only credential that counts here is photographs. So we await indication of his ability. And we await, more patiently, your posts too. Join the SI, even with archive material... Cheers, Alan -- --e-meil: there's no such thing as a FreeLunch.-- |

I simply wanted to reduce the risk that newer members would be put off contributing in case they thought that publication of pictures was a pre-requisite :-) PS, thanks for your kind comments. I'll see what my wife thinks about the handsome, though! David -- David Littlewood |

He is just another lame invention from the misguided mind of the person who invented, and posts as, "George Preddy" and other similar sock puppets.
