Heh. And might I say those with benefit of hindsight will generally be
correct. 

The rest of your email is so contradictory in so many spots not too mention
a trifle long I am not going to point anything in particular out except

First, apologies to the list for the unintentional header forgery.
My correct address is st3ng4h@...cast.net, not rob@...cast.net. It is my
