Actually, he seems disappointed and a bit mystified as to why his efforts haven't been as rewarded as some, but takes exactly the attitude you recommend. I do find his OP to which I responded quite good for exactly that reason, as I see you also do.
Great minds think alike!
I just wish he'd schooled me at the point he decided I was just gonna ignore any good points he made. That's why I made this post: in the hope that someone will =)
I hate being wrong, so try hard to be right. When someone proves I am wrong, I couldn't be happier, because I then get to change my mind, and get right!
Thanks!
