Hey Dan!
DC> I hereby rule him permanently *DISQUALIFIED* for the position.
Errrr ... what position? Also, I never knew you had the capabilities - or anyone else for that matter - to make such rulings.
For the record, if it were within my power(s) to do so, I'd rule that he fix the issue he is obviously having with character sets. Seems to me that over a decade ago it was his misidentification between CP437 and CP1252 or one of those latin based cp12xx dealies. It wouldn't surprise me if he still has the exact same issue which nicely brings us to Ward's discussion on the seperation of being technically capable and being an asshole. I am still waiting on his ruling on that particular issue before I finally find closure and am able to rest peacefully once more in the comfort of my own surroundings.
Life is good,
Maurice
