It's their house and we play by their rules.I find it indicative that the work "sucks" is not #####'D out. Either it slipped under the radar or others miught not find it as offensive.As always - just MHO,VicVisit the Virtual Pilot's Centerwww.flightadventures.comhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Proud SupporterRadar Contact Supporter: http://www.jdtllc.com/
