Beginning my bad reputation in offending people on mailing lists, you may be exaggerating a bit there. Yes, maybe in retrospect my question to C___ might have been better off left off of the public list. On the same token, your bashing me might have been better off meant for just me rather than make a spectacle of my error. Google anyone's name on this list and chances are you can find out a lot more about them than where they used to go to school, your name works well for this as well. Some might say that this message also should not appear on this list either. This is the last non pd related post I will make, believe me. I find this list a breath of fresh air and appreciate all who contribute very much. It is truly amazing that better support can come from an open-source tool than commercial software. It seems to me a somewhat tight and often friendly community and it might be great if it could also be used for networking. My message to Mr. C_____could be seen as one such attempt to say hello to people who might be in the C____ area.

C____ thank you for your response, it is not my intent to offend anyone.

I wasn't dodging the question out of privacy, but rather to hide the shame of being affiliated with the place! The only contact I have with SAIC is sending Wafaa Bilal bail money. ;)

hey ben,
fulfilling my bad reputation in offending people on mailing lists, I have to ask you; why don't you want to post also his private phone number, bank account, creditcard number, address, ssn?
I think it is really bad style to post private information about other people on a public forum...
