onthefence, still can't find a job, huh? for the most part, with the "unanswered" questions you're referring to, the poster (for example, you) has been directed to one of a number of contacts, but they (you) typically refuse to contact them. now, if you (or, heck, even me) have a question, and someone tells you where you can go to get that question answered, but then you refuse to go there and ask someone who can actually answer it...that kinda tells me you never really wanted an answer in the first place. so, did you ever contact tripp miller or rob strickland to get answers to your questions? when i have questions, i try and go to the person (or persons) who can answer them. in this case, i had questions that only bear could answer.
speaking of which, bear, please don't stop on my account - you're not bothering me and certainly not stepping on my toes. you question posters all the time for clarity, correctness, possible hidden agendas, etc - that's all i'm doing here. i'm not sure why you believe i'm attacking you personally - i'm only responding to statements i take exception to. and for the record, if i have not before, i give you full credit for your part in starting the bridge. i'm not sure exactly how it all came about (and i don't want to take away credit from the originator) but i do recognize the effort you put forth to get it started (although i'm sure there is much work you did that i am not aware of - and i don't claim to know everything you did, or even a fraction of it), and I, personally, greatly appreciate that effort. not sure where we (my child) would be right now if it weren't for the bridge.
onthefence, also for the record, i do not find bear at all alluring (bear, no offense, but i had to throw that out there, lest someone think differently)
