Gentlemen (because we are still Gentlemen, aren't we? ;), I do not intend to defend my self in public in this mathematical matter, and I wont either. I have though been selecting some letters that I will make some private replies on - and if the author hasn't bother to configure his mail reader to send the proper response address I wont bother to try to figure it out for my self. Secondly: Thanks for your support Ross. I know that at least you (among some other guys) appreciate some of my ironic comments as humor - I have had this confirmed in private response from these guys - but some people does not, and they seams to prefer to response in public rather than privately (and suddenly with all private CC replies mysteriously gone to ;). Why is that the case? Anyhow I have a strong believe that humor makes the world goes around just a little bit smother, and is some case even can prevent wars between nations - humor is a source of relief. Anybody who does not comprehend with this kind of thinking is actually, and in fact, more likely to start a conflict, raise a case of anger or hate between different parties. We all need humor, and we all need a pretty good laugh from time to time. With this I do no try to suggest to say that I am brilliant with humor nor the savior of this world. For those of you guys who does not share my opinion or appreciate my kind of humor: Well, I don't dislike you guys, but I do honestly think you guys are a bit boring, and would most likely not prefer you company Friday night at the pub. ;) And to be really really nasty and ugly against my opponents of criticism: it is more or less a proven fact that sensitivity of humor is related to the intelligence level of the beholder: the more intelligent a person is the more likely it is that this person will appreciate the more subtle humor in a message. And as we all know, Americans are a very stupid people and will hence most likely have no humor at all when encounter with it. But the world is bigger than America - even if the Americans doesn't know that them self. Therefore humor will always prevail! (Those guys of you who are intelligent will understand that this was humor - the other not, and hence need to read this "declaration of humor" in parenthesis in order to understand this - and I beat you are an American if you did that to... ;) Cheers and Happy new years to _all_ of you (intelligent or not :), Anders
