You just did. Ask him that is. You think he doesn't read all the posts? I know you are not that stupid.

It might be time for him to empty his list and stop trying to dominate us. Assuming, that is, that he actually wishes things had gone differently for him here.

Nice to see he admits his faults.Still it is bad form and bad taste to jack a thread.
