I just tried the search thing for the first time just now. Pretty handy thing-a-ma-bob. Maybe I'll started using it so someone doesn't lay the smack-down on me for posting an already answered thread. Little disapointed searching for Idiot doesn't bring me up though. Working on getting the dictionary definition to include me

I think it was very inappropriate to post the private email that Randy sent you, Trojan Horse. While it is certainly not illegal, it is unethical, to openly post a private letter.
Obviously that communication was not meant for everyone, or everyone would have received it (or Randy would have posted it publicly.)

BTW: if you want to comment on this TH, and you use private mail, rest assured it won't end up on this board. If you feel like flaming me publicly . . . post away.

eastwest .. agree that Randy's full email should not have been posted. Still think he was polite and sensible in it though.
Village Idiot .. Search is a very handy tool at times. All will agree the present version has its drawbacks, but far better than not having it at all. You can specify a search by USER NAME only on all threads and all your posts will come up, or anyone who has used your name within a post, such as I have just done here.

While I wouldn't put any private e-mail on the boards myself (except for responses from airline complaints/questions, special bonuses over e-mail, etc.), I was happy to read what Randy wrote. He was very cordial and seemed to handle the situation is a very fair way. Not too harsh, but harsh enough to get his point across.
