It's wonderful that you're amused by all this Mikey but I believe you're a minority of one, at least to the extent that YOU appear to be entertained.

To let Steve run amok without scolding would be just as irresponsible as to let that little two year old you speak of do the same.

Didn't a new guy ask what the deal with Steve was the other day? There must be "alot" more wondering the same thing. Maybe you know he's a hopeless buffoon, with a very nasty streak by the way, others need to be informed before they have a problem.

Ultimately, I don't care what Steve does as long as he does it once a week and keeps me off his personal mailing list which he harvested here.

Bill
