Why should he not? How do you know it was relevant? If someone asks
something in a certain manner without explanation...of course there is no
way it is necessary to tell someone...LOL Why do you think you own the rule
book to dictating who should say what..

You like to think you know whats best for other people I reckon 

Again you amaze me, the point is obsolete, I already told him in great
detail what I did...your behind the times old chap..Get with the
program.LOL...

How can I be paranoid? your a bizaar man Peter the accountant?

I think you like arguing...thats what I think about you! You seem a real old
fusspot...fussing about such small minutae, that are completely irrelevant
to the general meaning of the thread...don't take offense , but maybe thats
one of your personal qualities..

I have met many dear charming little fusspot, nagging types of characters
who allways like things done their way, or they will argue every irrelevant
point in the book, quite often they are amazingly good with figures.

What exactly do you do for a living?
