Y'know, the odd thing is I usually find Scott's remarks to be rather arguing the absurd, but I will admit that he's not wrong. Just pointless. (...) You're absoloutely right.

I agree with you Dave. I think actual question I am asking Larry is very minor. But the reason I am asking the question which is important.
