Mike,
I think the reply may have been intended for Mark, as I certainly didn't see your post as being nasty at all, not like Mark's, and more so I felt you bent over backwards to be polite in responding to him. For that you should be commended, if anything.
Not that anyone cares for my $0.02, but since when has that ever bothered me enough to keep me from posting???
