: Boy talk about being grossly unfair. Have you happened to notice that the guy
: who wrote that book also provides this forum for free?

: You really don't want to know what my feelings are about your post!

: I've got the greatest of respect for Nick, he's a really decent guy and
: that's a grossly unfounded accusation. I'd suggest apologizing.

: Bill H.

I agree with Bill totally on this one.

I've been watching this excellent Forum for over 5 years,and though I dont know Nick personally,I cant think of anyone who has ever had a bad word to say about him.

He has always gone out of his way to help anyone.

To suggest that he purposely made the offsets incorrect to therfore sell more books,is a statement thats ridiculous to the supreme.

I see he was man enough to admit his mistake and offer a soultion after GDM's first post.

I think I'd be man enough to apoligize.

But then,thats just me.

Have a nice day.
