First off, your apology is, at least as far as this USER is
concerned, NOT accepted. Your request for assistance was a
blatant disregard of generally accepted standards for the
proper use of the Internet.
Second, your "request" was nothing more than a business
advertisment - from which only you stood to gain. This
should have been advertised in the "MISC" section. If I
was remotely interested in your product, I would have begun
my search in that section.
In my case, your intrusion in "my" rec.woodworking
newsgroup was, an annoyance, time-consuming and a list of
other adjectives.
Good day to you Sir.
