lets not turn this forum into a place for name calling and insults. that is what the old forum is for. wouter may have been wrong regarding the selective availability, but his other input on this subject was right on.

as an aside, it amazes me how brave people turn behind the anonanimity of the internet. i wonder if you would take the opportunity to jump into a conversation where people could see who you are and make such a comment. i had already corrected wouter, as did kevin rose. neither of us resorted to name calling. in general, poeple get more respect by not commenting about someone rather than commenting negatively.
