    Clearly I missed your point here :-)
    You just had a long rant about everything you hate about the forum and the then tell people if they don't like it, turn it off. You don't see the irony?

    Nope. It attempted to open Outlook Express which I don't use.

    I dont think the system Edinburghlass described is open to all users yet, though i may be wrong, not visited the thread regarding it for a week or two, though i can vouch she is correct for those trialing it, as i have used it, and even though i do use outlook, its a vast improvemant, so hpoe they make it available to all, but i think that will depend on the load it puts on the servers if i understood the reason for the trial correctly

    How can anyone suggesting starving vulnerable people to death not be deemed offensive?

    What the hell are our troops doing in Afghanistan is we tolerating calls to starve to death our sick and disabled back in the UK?

    Is that what we fought two world wars for?
