Man, I thought I made it clear in my message that I wasn't trying to be offensive, just making an observation. If I offended you, then I'll just post somewhere else. But I do have my opinion and I stick by it. No need to bash me for it. My post on fractals was well suited for this newsgroup because it was not a suggestion of a technical nature, but just a concept. If, as I surely will, write a fractal program, I will discuss how I programed it in the programing newsgroup.
