I understand where you are coming from Jeff but most techs are not english majors. You, yourself mis-spelled on in the first sentence of your post. Come one people doesn't make much sense. We all do it. Probably due to typing skills more than anything else. I do however agree that some posts you just can't answer because they are incomplete or plain don't make sense. They are unfortunate because they will go unanswered.
