Would be sad to see you leave Windrum, even if I totally understand and agree that this is no place for patronizing and I would love to see the tone shapen up.
And research IS asking questions, no matter how "stupid" - and there is no one forcing anyone to answer. And those who do can have a lot of learning both in aswering and asking. And to me it seems that you (Windrum) have worked alot on your Emax and probably both have valuable info AND are willing to share.
Regards Niklas (Who found his latest Emax in the dumpster - and thereby disqualified him from asking "easy" questions..;))
