Wow! I had always thought of Gregory (Mr. Sharkster) as one of the
list's more benign creatures (unless provoked). I'm not aware of what
you two had said to each other in private about Normandy or whatever,
but I think the reply Doug gave him was quite uncalled for. "F_rting"
and "a__hole" and the such. Maybe Gregory's sarcastic point was, that
some of us don't really like to feel belittled by a bunch of
"Techno-babble"...especially when it's about 3 pages of text or more.
If so, you best spell it correctly? We all realize that Doug is a very
intelligent and talented person with loads of insight (to say the
least), but some of us probably don't want our face rubbed in our
supposed ignorance.

Now, I don't know what you two had going in private, but I've never seen
you (Bernd) go off on anyone like that before. I'm guessing I don't
know the whole story and will leave it as such and offer my apologies
now for even mentioning it.

Hope everyone can work it out between themselves and the list can go
on. I meant no offense to anyone and hope none was taken.

Probably said too much already,
Dave
